@Jdforrester-WMF According to meta, level 0 doesn't understand the language at all. Level 1 can only read. Only level 2 and up are capable or writing in a language. So input fields (which require writing) should only be presented to those who consider themselves level 2 and up.

I appreciate that that random page on Meta that I'd never seen before says that, and made you think that adding dozens of -0 as a talisman to scare off users who speak those languages was a supported way to use the Babel extension, but it isn't and it wasn't.

I would very strongly recommend that you delete the mess of -0 boxes on your user page that mostly highlight your account to people that speak those languages (and disrupt your experience on Meta, with language links on the sides of articles on Wikipedia etc., on Wikidata, and now on Commons).
