Francais Tirailleur is a pidgin language, recognize in a variety of academic sources that I will add here soon. There is a French equivalent of this entry, unfortunately previously named petit negre but I changed that. What could possible be reason for deletion?

The point being that you can not introduce a new article with no sources and just one sentence and say "I'm going to work on it later." There is a process for that and it's called the draft process. It is useful because you can perfect your article while not immediately submitting into the main space when it is not anywhere near prepared. It also currently does not have enough information to meet the significance guidelines. SantiLak (talk) 20:28, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I understand that, that is sensible. I've added information and tagged it as a stub. Marshagreen (talk)
I've removed the speedy deletion tag and added two other tags that might help. Good luck! SantiLak (talk) 20:43, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Français TirailleurFrançais tirailleur – In French, the adjective hasn't got an upper case. If the title is in French, it must be "Français tirailleur"; but I see that there are some sources which use "Français Tirailleur". So? Regards, ChoumX (talk) 12:09, 12 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose - this is not the French Wikipedia, it is the English Wikipedia, so we don't have to adhere to French language rules, even for borrowed terms such as this. Looking at the English language sources used in the article, for example [1] and [2], it seems like English sources generally treat this as a proper noun, and capitalise both words.
