TASK DESCRIPTION

Internally, Wikibase uses Language: fetchLanguageName which in turn uses Language: fetchLanguageNamesUncached ...which loads language names from various sources.
Every time an item is loaded from Wikidata, it will place a fallback language behind the label if it is not available in the current language.

In Danish the language "Dutch" is described on Wikipedia as https://da.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nederlandsk_(sprog) where hollandsk is an alias. Here the CLDR is wrong as it shows "hollandsk" behind the label. But that should be "nederlandsk".
On the other hand the country is called "Holland" instead of "Nederlandene". In this case, the CLDR is correct.
