Bug ID: 57547
Summary: Use ISO country codes instead of a numeric id to
reference countries
Product: Wikimedia
Version: wmf-deployment
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Wikimania Scholarship

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
The countries table uses a numeric autoincrement field as a primary key. This
PK is used as a foreign key in the scholarships table. The existing system is
fragile and requires synchronization of the keys in the countries table with
element order in a PHP array. The application would be easier to maintain if we
switched to using standard ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes.
