Unassigned/non-standard (compound) language and dialect codes
See original GitHub issueWiktionary has entries for several languages and dialects with unofficial codes we can’t scrape. Some examples of these include
- Central Franconian:
gmw-cfr - Old Galician/Portuguese:
roa-opt - Westrobothnian:
gmq-bot
possibly among others. The first part of the code denotes a valid ISO 639-3 language group, while the second part looks like a temporary assignment.
This issue is not a bug. It is simply intended for the book-keeping purposes. I suppose this is not related to #329.

Yes, precisely.
Looking at unmatched_languages.json it turns out that the Wiktionary language codes are rather systematically constructed.
The ones which are probably most problematic (in terms of work involved to support them) are the
*-protolanguages, but the remaining few five or six are probably reasonably easy to support. I guess what we have here is an edge case where the the wiktionary code maps to a non-existent compound ISO where the first part has to be a valid ISO language group name and should be verifiable, while the second can come from the configuration file.
