Move deprecated language codes from MediaWiki to WMF configuration
Open, Needs TriagePublic
Actions

Description

Currently MediaWiki contains deprecated language codes:

The deprecated language codes are only used in WMF projects. These language codes are not needed in MediaWiki itself. Some language codes even block a standardized use of the language codes (als is the language code for Tosk Albanian and not for Alemannic) in MediaWiki. Therefor the mapping LanguageCode::DEPRECATED_LANGUAGE_CODE_MAPPING and the deprecated language codes in Names.php should moved from MediaWiki to a WMF specific configuration.
