Description

The fallback language for Northern Sámi (se) was recently changed to add Norwegian Bokmål and Finnish as fallback languages. However, this is a problem because it will make the interface even less understandable for those in Finland. A solution that was proposed by Nike in Gerrit is to add extra country-specific locales for Northern Sámi that have different fallback languages for each country.
