CLDR and pt
Fragment of a discussion from Support/LiquidThreads
Just to ensure we're in synch, what you guys are talking about will resolve the Language Names extension issue, right? So, I won't need to follow it up independently.
Is it correct now?
Nike
Thanks for addressing this, Nike. Well... I'm unsure :-). We have:
- {{#languagename:pl}} now returns the correct "polaco", so that is certainly fixed.
- But, on the "Other languages" box, in the "Intro" pages of this wiki, it still says "polonês" (incorrect) instead of the correct "polaco". Could this be due to the chache, perhaps?
- On the weird side of things, though, in the side bar, under section "Recent changes", there was a change from "Traduções em português" (correct) to "Traduções em Portuguese" (incorrect). It seems to have been reverted to the english language... any idea why?
- Sidebar's in other languages comes from MediaWiki.
- Don't know about the translations in ... thing. Maybe the pt-pt data in CLDR only has overrides for the pt translations?

Yes, it should be the case that the pt-PT variation only has overrides, pretty much as all other variations which CDLR does not consider main. So, I guess it needs to be retrieved in the same way as en-GB, de-AT, de-CH, etc. Is that possible?
May I be incredibly pushy here and nudge you a tiny little itsy bitsy bit? Maybe some hack possible?
I'd go for fixing the code discrepancy. That is out of my abilities however.
