--- Comment #3 from Jon Harald Søby <[email protected]> --- From the top of my head, these should not be used at all: * simple (labels and descriptions on Wikidata should all be pretty simple by default; more of a community/policy issue, but technically I don't see the need for separate simple and en descriptions. But should be discussed by the community on Wikidata) * tokipona (why is this still available at all?) * ug (Wikipedia uses both Arab and Latin script, labels/descriptions should specify which one is used) And these should be redirects: * als -> gsw (correct language code) * bat-smg -> sgs (correct language code) * be-x-old -> be-tarask * fiu-vro -> vro (correct language code) * no -> nb (for legacy Wikipedia reasons) * roa-rup -> rup (correct language code) * zh-classical -> lzh (correct language code) * zh-min-nan -> nan (correct language code) * zh-yue -> yue (correct language code) Borderline cases, not sure which way these should redirect: * hif-latn <-> hif (Wikipedia seems to only use Latin script) * kbd-cyrl <-> kbd (Wikipedia seems to only use Cyrillic script) * ku-latn <-> ku (Wikipedia seems to only use Latin script) * tt-cyrl <-> tt (Wikipedia seems to only use Cyrillig script) Not sure: * crh / crh-latn / crh-cyrl: probably crh should redirect to crh-latn, or the other way around. crhwiki seems to use Latin only. * gan / gan-hans / gan-hant: some sort of automatic conversion should be made available on Wikidata, as with other languages written in Han script(s) * kk / kk-arab / kk-cyrl / kk-latn / kk-cn / kk-kz / kk-tr: the Wikipedia has automatic conversion (from Latin?), should be made available on Wikidata. * ks / ks-arab / ks-deva: ks should probably redirect to ks-arab, or the other way around. kswiki seems to use Arabic only. Probably no automatic conversion available. * ruq / ruq-cyrl / ruq-latn: maybe ruq should be disabled and only ruq-cyrl and ruq-latn accepted as inputs? * shi / shi-tfng / shi-latn: don't know which one is more common * sr / sr-ec / sr-el: same as above * tg / tg-cyrl / tg-latn: automatic conversion? * zh and variants (except those mentioned earlier): automatic conversion exists on Wikipedia, should be reuseable on Wikidata In most of these "Not sure" cases, the main language code should probably be disabled, and input should be specifically in either of the two/more variants, though the presence of automatic conversion for some may make things a bit more complicated. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
