The way it's been explained to me (by people who speak Noongar) is that the dialects are more like regional accents, with some particular words and usages that are unique to themselves but are still quite often understood by the others. So I'm not sure they'd be called

Hoi,
The Wikipedia article says different. Indeed Ethnologue is leading.. By the

@GerardM, "nys" is not a macro-language according to the SIL, and we follow the standards (as you so often insist yourself). So this is OK, like I said before.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T127858EMAIL

Exactly and according to the ISO-638-3 Noongar is a macro dialects and what

@GerardM: could you explain what this means? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyungar_language doesn't say anything about macro; do you mean that it's composed of multiple dialects?TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T127858EMAIL

Hoi,
The Wikipedia article has it as a macro language and that makes it
problematic.
