Module:ISO 639 name

This module is intended as a replacement for {{ISO 639 name}} and the plethora of {{ISO 639 name <code>}} templates (see Category:ISO 639 name from code templates).
For code-to-name mapping, this module uses data from:
- Module:Language/data/ISO 639 override – code to name mapping where the name is different from the name in the ISO 639 standard
- Module:Language/data/iana languages – from IANA language-subtag-registry file; this data used only for ISO 639-1 language codes / names listed there
- Module:Language/data/ISO 639-2 – from Codes for the Representation of Names of Languages
- Module:Language/data/ISO 639-3 – from sil.org UTF-8 Complete Code Tables Set
- Module:Language/data/ISO 639-5 – from Codes for the Representation of Names of Languages Part 5
For name-to-code mapping, this module uses data from:
- Module:Language/data/ISO 639 name to code – names and codes extracted from the code-to-name data set above
Errors are tracked in:
External links[edit source]
- Module:ISO 639 name at Wikipedia, the free Terran-based encyclopedia that anyone can edit.
