Description:
Hi,
should regional dialects of same language be mapped for item pages in Wikibase (i.e. in language settings (display settings) Canadian or en-ca should be mapped to English/en).

Compare items:
http://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q16&setlang=en
http://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q16&setlang=en-ca
See also:
http://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q16&setlang=pt
http://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q16&setlang=pt-br

For users who set their language to a regional dialect, it will appear as though no 'alias' data has been added to the system. Properties and Items may also not appear with labels.
