Hi @Rocky_734, thanks for taking the time to report this and welcome to Wikimedia Phabricator! This is about https://sat.wikipedia.org/ ?
For future reference, please always use the bug report form (linked from the top of the task creation page) to create bug report. Thanks a lot.

Thanks @Aklapper , I'm sorry for it .. never gonna repeat next time. Yes, it is about Santali Wikipedia (sat.wikipedia.org). This language Wikipedia is missing from the list of language in the home page of www.wikipedia.org.

Hello @Rocky_734
I would like to work on this task. Could you please guide me to the target file where the changes are supposed to be made.

@abhigya_pandey It is unlikely that the reporter of a problem knows some "target file" (?). Please check https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/tag/wikimedia-portals/ which is linked under "Tags" here in the sidebar.

Thanks Aklapper once again for your suggestions.

@Rocky_734 I've looked at this issue and it seems like the problem is related to how the search options are populated.

In src/common/templates/search.handlebars we use a variable called top100000List and top100000Dropdown to populate the search options.

<select id="searchLanguage" name="language">
    {{! 100,000+ content pages, sorted by romanization }}
    {{#each top100000Dropdown}}
        {{> search.option}}
    {{/each}}
</select>

There are only search options for wikis with 100,000+ articles, of which Santali is not one yet. This range is somewhat arbitrary and I think it can be changed, maybe to include wikis with 10,000+ articles instead.

To change this, we would need to change the following variable in /src/wikipedia.org/controller.js to use 10,000 instead of 100,000 as the range.

// Format the dropdown for ./templates/search.mustache
top100000List = stats.getRange( 'wiki', 'numPages', 100000 );
top100000Dropdown = stats.format( 'wiki', top100000List, {
	stripTags: true
} );

@abhigya_pandey would you be interested in working on this change?

Yes, I will be working as soon as possible.

I found the existence of “Santali” language at correct position in https://www.wikipedia.org/.Which are depicted from below pictures-

I think the cutoff was originally set at 100,000+ articles to avoid making the dropdown list too long. However, it’s long been the case that the user’s preferred language is chosen automatically by default, so the length of the list doesn’t matter so much anymore.

@Rocky_734 its like your issue was resolved when I updated the pagecounts.json script related to T300434. The link to the Santali language wikipedia now appears on www.wikipedia.org.

My previous comment misinterpreted your request and I thought you meant that the Santali language does not appear as an option for the search dropdown (pictured below). If that's not an issue, then I think we can close out this ticket.
