Strange solution. Ethnologue states[1]: "Low Saxon varieties listed as separate
entries in the Netherlands, where they have official status" 'nds' is the Low
Saxon spoken in Germany. Low Saxon is also a macro language (of which Low Saxon
is a language), with languages that are spoken in the Netherlands. It appears
to me like a complex solution is chosen here, where the regular ISO 639-3
should suffice[2].
* nds = Low Saxon
* nds-nl = I have no idea. Some creole of all nds macro languages spoken in NL?
If it is one of the Low Saxon language spoken in NL, the code should probably
be emptied, and completely fall back to a proper ISO 639-3 language.
* xxx = whichever Low Saxon language has sufficient localisation to be in
MediaWiki proper
