Hi all,

In a "[Wikidata] How many languages supports
Wikibase/Wikidata?" thread beginning May 26, Jan Macura writes


Hi all,

looking into [1] I read that Wikidata supports 358 languages. Is it
still true? For example, I tried to add label in language coded as
"nan" (defined in ISO 639-3) and it worked. However it didn't worked
for e.g. "arb", which is also part of the ISO 639-3 standard. So how
many?

Thanks
 Jan

Thanks for helping to focus these unfolding Wikdaata language
development questions, Markus.

thanks Scott! You reminded me, that I still haven't received appropriate answer to my original question... ping Markus et al.

Such questions refer to current implementation details and can only be answered by the developers.

Best,

Markus

Thanks Jan
