Hoi,
Absolutely. There is no reason why en-AU or en-US are not valid and cannot
be used in WIkidata for monolingual text.. That is a particular property in
Wikidata. What is a problem is that at the same time codes are given a
meaning that does not follow our language policy. The policy exists to
prevent the abomination of using codes for something different.
Thanks,
GerardM
