1RR
This article has become another battleground. Enough is, quite frankly, enough of the edit warring, as the article is now protected for the fourth time since July due to it. We're going to try something new. Starting now, this article; under the discretionary sanctions authorised in Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Macedonia; is hereby placed on a 1RR restriction. This means one revert, per user, per day. This restriction is per person, not per account. The most obvious vandalism is excepted from this restriction, and I do mean obvious. This restriction applies to all users, and I will place an edit notice of this for the article. Any appeals should be directed towards my talk page in the first instance, or Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Enforcement in the second. Courcelles 11:52, 4 October 2025 (UTC)

It is not correct that Croatian language is part of the Serbo-Croatian language. The name Serbo-Croatian language (spoken in Serbia Republic of Yugoslavia) was created during the Yugoslavia time, as well as the Croatian-Serbian language which was 'spoken' in Croatia Republic of Yugoslavia. Please delete this incorrect and misleading statement. Wiksources (talk) 17:38, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

In the 'Writing systems' section, add 'Arabica (historical)' due to Glagolitic and Bosnian Cyrillic having been listed as historically used writing systems. Zalihost (talk) 20:51, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
- I do not understand the logical connection that is supposed to be expressed by the "due to". Glagolitic and Bosnian Cyrillic have been used by Croats (Catholics), there's no doubt about that. That doesn't say anything about their usage of arabica (arebica), which was a writing system primarily used by Muslims/Bosniaks. I've managed to find only some tenuous claims that Croats used arabica (the author includes Mehmed Erdeljac and Hasan Kaimija in the Croatian literary corpus – but those names don't sound typically Croatian...). If you have some better sources for this topic that go into more detail, please point to them. – Phazd (talk|contribs) 17:47, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

I would like to suggest adding a link to the article "Understanding the Dialects of the Croatian Language" from StudyCroatian.com as a reference for the term "Neo-Shtokavian dialect" in the article on the Croatian language.
The article provides additional context on the Neo-Shtokavian dialect, explaining its significance as the basis of Standard Croatian. It details the dialect’s historical development, its role in modern Croatian language, and how it influences pronunciation and grammar. This would complement the current information on the dialect and enrich the article for readers.
Please consider adding the following link to the words "Neo-Shtokavian dialect":
