  We need to distinguish tickets that are additions of language codes and other 
language-related tickets. They are not the same and do not follow the same 
processes etc. This ticket was only about standardizing turn-around times for 
the addition of new language codes based on its title. For the process around 
this we have the language code phabricator board for some time now and that 
seems to have made the process much clearer, more transparent and tickets are 
in my opinion moving through it swiftly enough. The one thing that takes a bit 
longer still is getting language committee input. Since none of these tickets 
are life or death situations I prefer to get meaningful input from people 
tasked with understanding the complexity of languages in Wikimedia instead of 
making a change and then having to go through discussions about why it was 
wrong and undo it because that is more painful. So let's think about how we can 
help make getting that input easier (and I fear setting a deadline doesn't 
qualify as making it easier). @Amire80 if anything comes to your mind please 
let me know.
  
  All other ticket triage related to language or not: generally setting 
deadlines on tickets, understanding if something is suitable for other 
contributors to pick up and deciding if a ticket is ready for the development 
team should be with the team (if in doubt the product manager or tech lead). I 
think we're spending quite a bit more time and energy in discussions on 
language processes than is warranted compared to the many other things people 
want to see done around Wikidata.
