Wikidata: Support language gmh for monolingual text
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Could the Wikidata software support monolingual text in Middle High German, with gmh as ISO 639 code? For example, the Wikidata statement Ursula von Rambach → father → Otto von Rambach has a reference with a quotation. Currently, the language of this quotation had to be mis-tagged as de/German. Actually, the quote is in gmh/Middle High German, but the current Wikidata software does not allow entering monolingual text in language gmh.
