ISO 639-6 codify dialects (at least the major ones). You should check first if the dialect has that code and just if it doesn't have, you should think about creating new code (likely to suggest it as new ISO 639-6 code).

Good day,
Do you think there would be a way to implement something where the contributor could select his dialect of a language within his preferences or at the time of writing an article so we could make indexation of articles by dialect somewhat automatic ?
Thanks, JP
