And then for hak... Can someone verify that "Hakka (Traditional Han script)" and "Hakka (Simplified Han Script)" are proper way to describe how Hakka speakers would write their language in Han scripts?

Of course it is one of the correct way to write this language. Ministry of Education, ROC awards Literary Award of Taiwanese and Hakka (教育部閩客語文學獎, their website is https://www.edu.tw) every year. You can see hak-hant here.

Hello, my question was NOT about whether it can be written in Chinese script (which I know it can), instead my question was that, whether there are meaningful differences between "Hakka with Simplified characters" and "Hakka with Traditional characters", as some previously mentioned that in certain other Chinese languages, characters that are currently used by the Simplified script have other function in the written version of that language, making it almost impossible to write the language using Simplified script and thus there are no need to distinguish Simplified - Traditional Chinese for that language. What I would like to know is whether Hakka also fit this situation being described.

I'm not hearing any objections from the Language Committee, so I'm probably going to start adding these codes.

Let's start with nan-hani. What will be the autonym for it?

Based on the other Chinese autonyms in langdb.yaml, I would suggest "閩南語（漢字）". The first three characters are the language name in Chinese characters (as given on zh-min-nan.wikipedia.org) and the two characters inside the brackets are the word for Chinese characters (again, as used on zh-min-nan.wikipedia.org, see the last two characters of the autonym for cdo-hani too).

Shouldn't they be lowercase for consistency?

Yes. If langcom agrees on all codes, I'll submit a patch will all lowercase, otherwise only with the approved languages.

Let's do nan-hani and see how it works.

Actually no, a moment.

If the autonym for cdo-hani doesn't have parentheses, should nan-hani have parentheses? I'd really love to hear from someone who knows Chinese well.

OK, I received several comments from speakers saying that parentheses are OK (example), so let's do nan-hani with 閩南語（漢字）.

Great job! We have added the language code nan-hani.

Now it is time to add the language code cdo-hani.

nan-hani is merged, stalling this on the campsite board until the additional language codes are approved by LangCom.

Let me do something for Min Dong Chinese (cdo).

To clarify, the keyword here is "yet". I'm not against against cdo-hani in principle. I just wanted to make sure that when nan-hani is deployed, it works as expected. Is nan-hani now deployed? Does it work as expected? Can anyone give some examples?

@Amire80 Yes, nan-hani "Min Nan (Hanji)" was deployed and seems to be working as expected, thank you. I did not see any real live examples of usage yet.

@Manuel: Any examples yet? @Amire80: Is cdo-hani ok as well, or do you still want to wait?

I have just added the nan-hani label to a few wikidata, according to either the hani version of article title on nan wikipedia, or hani lang template for title on latin character articles on the wikipedia. Examples include Q703914, Q127031, Q45190, Q660947, Q36778, Q2914034. I think it is working as expected.

p.s. It seems like Nan wikipedia is trying to use either namespace or category to categorize articles written in Hani but none appears to be comprehensive, and due to problem in wikidata those articles are also undiscoverable from wikidata, making it hard to find them ...

p.p.s. Should someone post about this on nan wikipedia Village pump?

That list doesn't seem to be accurate, I can't find nod in the list, but it's used twice on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q565110 (added in 2016 and 2019, so not new either).

Thank you @Nikki for making me aware of this! I have now retracted my original comments.

Thanks for flagging this. I ran the code on that particular item and it recorded nod usages. It seems the dump in stat machines are somewhat broken. I will look into it.

Okay, I have had enough of the json dumps moving around breaking the script. I ran this hadoop query (that's basically two weeks old)

SELECT regexp_extract(claim.mainsnak.datavalue.value,',\"language\"\\:"(.+?)"',1), count(*) as hitcount
FROM wmf.wikidata_entity
LATERAL VIEW explode(claims) t AS claim
WHERE snapshot='2021-06-07'
AND typ = 'item' and claim.mainsnak.datatype = 'monolingualtext'
group by regexp_extract(claim.mainsnak.datavalue.value,',\"language\"\\:"(.+?)"',1)
order by hitcount desc
LIMIT 1000;

The result is P16694

Statistics about monolingual language code use in Wikidata (7 June 2021)

Thanks to @Ladsgroup we now have basic data on monolingual code use in Wikidata:

Frequency of monolingual language code uses in Wkidata items
(N=46.334.060 claims with monolingual language code)

See the last comment for the Hadoop hive query that was used.

As the current Wikidata-Campsite (Wikidata-Campsite-Iteration-∞ (On Hold)) unstaller, what is this task stalled on?
How can we unblock it?
Should this remain as part of the iteration? Can this be reviewed now? Or should the remaining parts be split out?

This is blocked on LangCom approval for the remaining languages.

The request isn't complete: it lacks samples.

Now I understand this better, and I support them all.

Then this is probably unstalled.

Great. I included them in Help:Wikimedia_language_codes/lists/all through Template:Tr_langcodes_counts_monolingual_text. It would be good if the data there could occasionally be updated.

That one was done before. The other languages aren't live yet, because it was merged after the cut off date for this weeks train. It will be rolled out with next weeks train.

These should be rolling out today then? :)

They all seem to be working - cdo-hani, hak-hans/hak-hant, nan-hani
