Change Details

The Language class should not depend on the Title class. The only non-deprecated code that currently needs the Title class is code that delegates to LanguageConverter. Such methods in Title should be deprecated, callers should be changed to use LanguageConverter directly (or a more narrow interface derived from that class). Note that Language will (for now) still need a LanguageConverter instance, but it should have no need to call any methods in LanguageConverter that need a Title object. Perhaps a new interface could be extracted that covers just the things that Language needs. See also {T226834}
