Name of Language[edit]

The main name for this language on Wikipedia is "Galician-Portuguese", with the two alternative forms Old Portuguese and Medieval Galician (when referring to the history of each modern language). Why does then Wiktionary use the title Old Portuguese, which almost seems biased towards Portuguese? Fueling the myth that Galician somehow stems from Portuguese, and didn't develop on its own alongside it. Why not use the neutral Galician-Portuguese instead?
