I can't answer on the APIs, but the three-letter prefixes are also languages - got is Gothic, xmf Mingrelian, etc. XXwiki or XXXwiki will always refer to the XX or XXX language Wikipedia using standard ISO 639-1 or 639-2 codes; there are a couple of exceptions, such as simplewiki, but anything with two or three characters should be reliable. -- - Andrew Gray [email protected] _______________________________________________ Wikidata-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikidata-l
