Should I list programming languages I'm only familiar (not proficient) with on LinkedIn?

Under the skills section, should I list the programming languages I'm only familiar with (taken a University course in) by themselves, label them (e.g., SQL (familiar)), or leave them out entirely?

Edit: I think my original question was a bit ambiguous. By "familiar", I mean not proficient in. How can I distinguish languages I'm merely familiar with from those that I'm proficient in. On my paper resume I add the proficiency in parentheses next to the language, but I haven't seen anyone else on LinkedIn do that.
