Likely related to (possibly a duplicate of) T44396: duplicate/invalid language codes <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T44396>. That task notes that the regular Wikidata user interface already doesn’t allow you to set terms using deprecated language codes – if you add e. g. `?uselang=zh-yue` to the URL, MediaWiki normalizes it (in this case to `yue`) before Wikibase ever sees it. (The example edits I linked above were made via Special:SetLabel <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:SetLabel>, which doesn’t use the user interface language and so still allows those language codes.) Maybe the Commons app should apply a similar mapping even if the underlying Wikibase problem isn’t fixed soon (so it would still be possible to set `zh-yue` via the API, but it wouldn’t happen so often through the Commons app.) TASK DETAIL https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T250114 EMAIL PREFERENCES https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/ To: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE Cc: Lucas_Werkmeister_WMDE, Aklapper, Roy17, Confetti68, CBogen, darthmon_wmde, Nandana, JKSTNK, Charlotte, Lahi, Gq86, Sharvaniharan, cooltey, schoenbaechler, Maggouri, Jcasariego, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, _jensen, rosalieper, Scott_WUaS, LNDDYL, Wikidata-bugs, aude, Dbrant, Lydia_Pintscher, Mbch331
