Additional language links
@Jarekt: Thanks for setting up this module, it’s often useful :) but what’s the procedure for adding more language codes to it? I’m looking at some edit requests where the output of {{subst:lle2}} is missing language codes – at Template:Free screenshot/lang, it would remove csb, and at Template:Vector version available/lang, it didn’t add prg.

- @Lucas Werkmeister: The procedure is that:
- either other languages are removed at the same time,
- or you convince the responsible people at WMF to increase the limits,
- because there are so many languages that the module cannot check all of them, not even when substituted. (A third way, only for templates using this module that are subst-only, would be developing some subst-only way to query all languages, for example by allowing subst-only programmatic access to Special:PrefixIndex – it being subst-only would avoid all sorts of caching issues.) —Tacsipacsi (talk) 22:23, 30 November 2024 (UTC)
- @Lucas Werkmeister: , I think I figured out why "prg", "csb" and few dozen other languages were skipped. My quarry:query/83535 was only listing subpages that have more than a single instance. That was necessary as otherwise I had too many results and query was timing out. I found other way to limit number of the results and now I am capturing those too. I recreated the steps of list creation with those languages and rewrote description of the procedure I used. Thanks for pointing it out. --Jarekt (talk) 22:58, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
