Mbo langues lead to the disambiguation page

Noticed that the mbo langues lead to the disambiguation page:

• {{ISO 639 name|mbo|link=yes}} → Mbo - this is for Mbo language (Cameroon)
• {{ISO 639 name|zmw|link=yes}} → Mbo - this is for Mbo language (Congo)

Template broken (2024)

Template looks like it's broken. It's giving the following as an output: Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Language/data/ISO 639 deprecated' not found. HapHaxion _{(talk / contribs)} 14:59, 11 July 2024 (UTC)

Two suggestions

Hi, is it possible to add two features?

• a link to Mozambican Portuguese and other variants of that language;
• a shortcut to {{ISO 639 name link}}

Thanks.-- Carnby (talk) 20:12, 3 September 2024 (UTC)

ISO 639 does not recognize Mozambican Portuguese. Not in ISO 639? not going to be added to a template specifically for ISO 639 recognized languages.

If you want to create a shortcut (did you mean a redirect?) to {{ISO 639 name link}}, go ahead.

I've just discovered {{Llink}}, seems to be fine. Thanks anyway.-- Carnby (talk) 05:15, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

Mono language issue

There is an issue with this language, see the following:

• {{ISO 639 name|mnr}} → Mono
• {{ISO 639 code|Mono}} → error: Mono not found in ISO 639-1, -2, -2B, -3, -5 list (help)

Gonnym (talk) 13:45, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

You must tell the template which of the four you want. The name must be exactly as it is listed in the ISO 639 data modules (for a list of them, see Module:ISO 639 name § Data mapping):

• {{ISO 639 code|Mono (Democratic Republic of Congo)}} → mnh
• {{ISO 639 code|Mono (USA)}} → mnr
• {{ISO 639 code|Mono (Cameroon)}} → mru
• {{ISO 639 code|Mono (Solomon Islands)}} → mte

Ah, thanks for reminding me of this. Do you have any idea why {{IPA|mnr|test}} gets the non-disambiguated name (Category:Pages with Mono IPA)? Gonnym (talk) 14:26, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
