If we are able to use any ISO-639-3 that should do. It worried me hearing "there will be no 'custom' language", when there are language codes like "mis", "mul", "und", "zxx" that mean more or less "custom".

Thanks,
Micru

Hoi,
The ISO-639-3 has codes for "whatever". We can use a code for "whatever" and qualify it to a tin foiled hat or tin tin or whatever.
Thanks,

For instance in "Template:Infobox fictional country" there is a field for fictional mottos, like the one for Syldavia, the fictional country that appears in The Adventures of Tintin:

Syldavia (Q1751922) <motto> "Eih bennek, eih blavek."

Which languages are you worried about specifically? What kind of data
would you want to record for them? (I'm trying to get a feeling for
how large the problem is and which parts of it are already solved.)
