You are right.

 

It does not exist a Lombard language but there are different local versions. The version spoken in South of Switzerland has for instance its own authority owned by the canton of Ticino.

 

Kind regards

Subject: [Langcom] Re: Name of the Lombard language

 

I replied there on Meta. Not entirely sure what to do. I'm not opposed to it, but this language has a long story of competing and significantly different orthographies, and it's unclear who is the "authority". The Wikipedia articles about the language and the orthographies are not so well referenced (but maybe I'm missing something!)

 

Any other thoughts?

Please see https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Language_committee#Local_name_of_lombard_language and stuff linked from there. I forgot how / where to change the names.
