I updated the page- several additions based on comments made and some
reformatting.
I have some questions:
1) It was suggested that for Sweden, I add languages:
samiska, Saami
tornedalsfinska (meänkieli), Torndedalian(?) Finnish
(seen as a separate language from Finnish; I don't know how different it is
from official Finnish)
jiddisch, Yiddish (yi-SE)
romani (zigenarspråk), Romani (rom-SE)
There are several language codes for Saami, which are appropriate:
sma Southern Sami sami du Sud
sme se Northern Sami sami du Nord
smi Sami languages (Other) sami, autres langues
smj Lule Sami sami de Lule
smn Inari Sami sami d'Inari
2) What to do about yiddish? It is spoken in many places. Any idea whether it
is the same everywhere or not?
3) I noted that for Chinese, these tags were suggested:
zh-CN, zh-HK, zh-MO, zh-SG, zh-TW,
zh-Hans, zh-Hans-CN, zh-Hans-SG,
zh-Hant, zh-Hant-HK, zh-Hant-MO, zh-Hant-TW
Since there are only two tags for CN, zh-CN and zh-hans-CN, would those who
argue for not overdifferentiating tags, recommend just the simpler zh-CN?
Similarly for TW, just zh-TW?
