If you fudge the CSS a bit, you can see the error:

F27200468: Screenshot_2018-11-12 Create a new lexeme - Wikidata.png

I figure we have two options here:

  • Insist on only allowing known language codes, and change the form so that the condition for showing the “spelling variant” input is not just whether or not the spelling variant can be auto-inferred from the item, but also whether that language code is recognized by WikibaseLexemes.
  • Allow all language codes which occur as Property: ISO 639-1 code statements, even if they’re not known to WikibaseLexeme.

We could also add nr and lu as known languages now, but that just means someone else will eventually encounter this bug with other language codes. (That’s not necessarily an argument against adding nr and lu, it just means that we should additionally implement one of the above options, in my opinion.)
