I've asked Benjamin Yang from PanLex, who was the keynote speaker at
WikidataCon last year, about input on this.

>> * https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T180771
>>
>> I am not opposed to adding nan-hani or nan-hant or something like that
>> for MediaWiki localization (whether to make a whole wiki in that language
>> is a separate question, not for discussion in this thread). However, I know
>> almost nothing about these languages. Can anyone think of a reason not to

>>
>> And if it's done, what should the code be? nan-hani, nan-hant, or
>> something else?
