Hi all,
Today when playing around Wikipedia iOS app I'm surprised to find out that the Chinese language variant support is still somewhat broken. There is no zh-cn variant available, only zh-hans (displayed as "Simplified Chinese"). I haven't touched the Android app for a while, but in my last review it mistakenly includes zh-hans and zh-hant variants.
As I mentioned in https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T305319, the correct list of variants the app should include should be: zh-cn, zh-sg, zh-my, zh-tw, zh-mo, zh-hk. Other zh variants have incomplete conversion, thus should be excluded.
I hope somebody at the relevant team could reach out to me and discuss possible solutions. If you don't understand the reason to do this I can give a detailed explanation. I believe this task should not be triaged as "Low" because it has negative impacts on Chinese readers.
Best regards, Diskdance
