            Bug ID: 53641
           Summary: Not all language variants are recognized
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: CentralNotice
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]
                CC: [email protected], [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified
   Mobile Platform: ---

For Wiki Loves Monuments I created, just as last year, a group of pages to
contain the text of the CentralNotice banner in the several languages. Pages
like:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-wlm_2013-text/de
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-wlm_2013-text/fr
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-wlm_2013-text/nl

All these languages work perfectly fine. On request of users/organisers from
Hong Kong, China, and Taiwan we also created:

https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-wlm_2013-text/zh
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-wlm_2013-text/zh-cn
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Centralnotice-wlm_2013-text/zh-tw

It appears that the zh-... banners aren't recognized by the CentralNotice
extension as language, I noticed they do not show up in the available languages
list, while they are created. (Also be-tarask is missing there.)

From local users who have set there settings on zh-tw and also other variants,
those variant isn't shown, but instead another Chinese variant (I suspect
'zh').

I don't know why these variants can't be used, while in the preferences we can
set these Chinese variants as language.
