  Thank you all for your feedback!
  @Sascha Your experience with CLDR could definitely be useful for Wikidata, 
since we're struggling with displaying names of languages that are not entered 
yet in CLDR.
  
  For example, Numidian (nxm) has been added as an available language for 
monolingual text in Wikidata, but when I try to use it it's not appearing in 
the suggestion list, causing confusion for users who may think that the 
language is not available.
  
  (quick way to test it: go to the sandbox 
<https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4115189>, add a new statement with the property 
title, then enter a test value and finally type "nxm" or "num" in the language 
field that appears: Numidian is not suggested. However, if you type nxm and 
save the statement, it's correctly saved and "Numidian" is displayed)
  
  The code "nxm" seems to be unavailable in CLDR 
https://www.unicode.org/repos/cldr/trunk/seed/main/nxm.xml
  
  I'd like to make an experiment with this example: try adding this language to 
CLDR, and see if this action solves our problem on Wikidata. Would anyone be 
willing to try submitting data about Numidian to CLDR? :)
