Incorrect translation of Wikimedia:Portals-language-name/fr

I did not miss it, I had read it many times, but it was not displayed when I clicked one link a few piels away, thisi s visible in my history, I was translating some new messages Oppia and this occured in the middle, while I used the message search and not directly the translate UI. and the "/qqq" was not fully complete in other Oppia messages using incorrect including of the "Identical" template; and I fixed that in doc pages after your message. As well the issue was also fixed in Wikimedia portals even before you contacted me here.

Hi. Please let the version with a "F" upper-case: all languages names in https://www.wikipedia.org/ use a capital letter, there is no reason to not use one only for "Français". Yes, the language is written "français" in French, but there, it is like an interface label (such as the "Répondre" label in the reply tool I'm currently using", such as "Historique" on top of every wiki page, etc.), there is an upper-case to any first word; if instead of languages it were fruits, it would be "Banane", "Pomme", etc., not "banane", "pomme", etc.

Jules* is right: it has to be uppercase. Lojban is the only special case, and there are people who'd argue even about that. French is definitely not a special case. Don't change it to lowercase again.
