I did leave a question about the name on the request page

We should consult, but it’s possible to ask the requester what he or she thinks
about the naming.

A request has been made for Wikipedia in Sheshi Pang
[https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages/Wikipedia_Sheshi_Pang],
a Sino-Tibetan language of Nepal. However, ISO calls the language Sheshi Kham
[http://www-01.sil.org/iso639-3/documentation.asp?id=kip]; the Wikipedia
article groups it together with three other languages as the Kham language
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kham_language]. Ethnologue estimates 20,000
native speakers.
Is there any reason not to mark this eligible?
Should we use the requester's name Sheshi Pang or ISO's name Sheshi Kham?

Antony
