Hi, most countries now have a default_language [1] tag, specifying the most
likely language of the "name" tag in that region. Here's a list of 60+
countries that have multiple official languages. If you have local
knowledge, or can research it, could you add the proper default_language
tag to these relations? Also, if most of the country uses one language,
but some region uses a different default language, please set first
language on the whole country, and the second language on the smaller admin
region. Do not set multiple languages, e.g. "en;fr". See
Key:default_language wiki page.
This query generates a list of admin boundary relations that have no
default_language tag. It also shows country's the official languages per
Wikidata. http://tinyurl.com/y9382ewv
