Sorry, but your are wrong. Esperanto has no accent in Esperanto language but it does have one in French language and this is a title written in French, not Esperanto nor English.

Furthermore, language names are NEVER capitalized in French, this would be a syntax error.

marking invalid.

Ok, so I should undo the change to svn right?  Just commit the old version is that it?

Anyway, I'm a bit lost.  In an esperanto page, why should the name of the language be written in French?  Please bear in mind that the full name of the magazine *is* "Le Monde diplomatique" and Esperanto is just a localization.  If the page was in russian it would read (transliterated):

Le Monde diplomatique po ruskij

so it looked good to me to have:

Le Monde diplomatique en Esperanto

(maybe the fact that "en Esperanto" is the same in French and Esperanto, except for the capitalization, misled you)
mmm, you may be right actually, since it is a French newspaper and I didn't know it would be pronounced the same way in Esperanto and French, I thought that the title was written in French and was probably wrong. I am going to push your changes.
