Hi Nemo,

I'm not a programmer nor a language specialist.
Sorry for my Swiss school English...

I have found this:
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:Liste_der_Wikimedia-Wikis?uselang=en
Contains 400 languages - but WP says that WP has 293 languages,
see: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sprachen

>From there from column "Language" I extracted two columns
- language name local in local writing system
- language name English :-)

In the first list there are eight columns with
Wiki-language-abreviations (2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 characters).
But ISO 639-3 should have exact 3 characters?

I don't have a full ISO 639-3 list, and I don't like to try a matching
between a such list and the WP-language-abreviations by hand ;-)

Here I read that ISO 639-3 is required:
https://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translatewiki.net_languages#Policy_on_enabling_translation_into_a_language
but I can't find a such list.

> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-1_codes has most

Here I count 185 languages.
And I have no idea how to merge this with the other tables with 293 or
400 languages...

I hope that there is somewhere in the Wikimedia-space a table of all
used 293 WP-languages with:
- ISO 639-3
- language name local in local writing system
- language name English

I hope my needs are more clear now?

Bests, Markus
