Classification?

[edit]

The article explicitly states that Egyptian Sign Language is not related to other sign languages used in the surrounding Arabic-speaking world, yet both the Infobox and the Category at the bottom group this language in Arabic sign language family of which it is supposedly not a part. Does anyone know why? --Eliyahu S Talk 11:40, 8 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Response to Eliyahu: Classification of sign languages into families is something current scientific methods are not yet good at. The lexicostatistical study cited is the first attempt to classify sign languages of the Arab world, which may not all be related to one another. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 155.41.25.244 (talk) 23:12, 4 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
