Hi Catherine, Language tags at Wikipedia generally follow IETF BCP 47 [1], whose registry exists at [2]. 'alg' is an ISO 639-3 alpha3 code that is registered as a primary language subtag. Note that 'alg' is a "collection" code in ISO 639 and encompasses a variety of other subtags for the various Algonquian languages. Regards, Addison Addison Phillips Globalization Architect (Lab126) Chair (W3C I18N WG) Internationalization is not a feature. It is an architecture.
