Is there an oversight somewhere z98, where I can see at a glance which pages I've set for review and which not?

I think I've got all/most of them, but...


Well, anyway, I've pretty much finished with the Dutch translation, me thinks.

Why? A lot of FOSS projects have translations to officially unrecognized and/or artificial languages. MS works with US government in some areas and therefore cannot add some languages.

At that case, can you add "Pure" sublang to Turkish language?

Adding a language code unilaterally risks breaking compatibility if something officially gets assigned that code. At this point we're not prepared to make that kind of commitment.

Thanks for answer.

At that case, can I use pure Turkish (Öz Türkçe) when I translate?

It seems language IDs greater than 0x9C and parlance IDs greater than 0x7FFF are not allocated(said reserved for OS use). We can use 0x8041 as an ID for pure Turkish.
