[Task] Add already-requested language codes to set of language codes available for monolingual text values
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

As a first step, these language codes should be added to the PHP definition of ContentLanguages, so that they are available but not yet present in the JS-based suggester. This reduces duplication of configuration.

I will look into adding the following language codes to the list of language codes available for monolingual text values:

Initial support will probably be really bare-bones. That means that the language code might not have a pretty name and will not be available from the language code suggester. You will be able to save and retrieve it, though.

I'll also T125064: [Task] Define and document process for requesting language codes for monolingual text values, so that this will become much easier for you in the future.

I won't do sr-cyrl now, but as part of T125073.

Not now:

  • kea is about terms, not monolingual text

Waiting for responses:

  • Asked on T74590 for statements on the languages from Norway so that I can check usage
  • Asked on T98314 for statements on tzl
  • Asked for statements on sv-fi
  • Will talk to @Nikki about ko-kore. kore is already the default script for ko, so we shouldn't add it. We could add ko-hang and ko-hani (although hani is generic Han, not Hanja).
  • Asked for statements on koy

Good to go:

  • lkt

Still have to look at:

  • goh (user left Wikidata and request was unspecific)
  • lld
  • ett
  • Won't do goh now
  • Asked for statements on lld
  • Asked for statements on ett
