Hoi.

When a language is dead, it does not mean that it cannot be made available in Wikidata. The language committee has explicitly opened the door for any and all recognised language.. (ie ISO 639-3).

There is no need for tricks,

Thanks,

Hi,

Will the monolngual text datatype support old languages? There are settlements that had an "official name" in a now dead language. Besides of "no language", will there be an option to mark such names as "custom" and use the qualifier "language (p407)" instead?

Thanks,
Micru
