Chochenyo language → Chochenyo dialect – Move back to "dialect" name as academic consensus established that Chocheño, Ramaytush and Tamyen were dialects of a San Francisco Bay language 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 18:50, 2 December 2025 (UTC) — Relisting.

I suspect that all three proposed moves should be discussed together since they stand or fall together. I note first that there is no firm line about when a dialect becomes a language. Second that the Ohlone languages article offers sources on both sides. I also note https://cla.berkeley.edu/languages/chochenyo.html (California Language Archive, UC Berkeley) lists Chochenyo as a language so I wonder about the academic consensus.
