In the API modules for Wikibase there is a entry for valid languages, and it is
defined like this

languages           - By default the internationalized values are returned in
all available languages. This parameter allows filtering these down to one or
more languages by providing one or more language codes.

Values (separate with '|'): aa, ab, ace, af, ak, aln, als, am, an, ang, anp,
ar, arc, arn, ary, arz, as, ast, av, avk, ay, az,

In this list there are entries that should not be used for language specific
entries, like the Norwegian (no) entry. This is a metalanguage for Bokmål (nb)
and Nynorsk (nn). I guess there are several others that is also wrong. Some of
them could be redirected, but some should not be used at all. If the entry is
used as a site-prefix, or in the site id, we should probably set up a redirect
even if it is not strictly correct.
