I noticed an anomaly in the languages last year and made a note on the discussion page. But nobody reads the discussion pages so nothing will ever be done and the anomaly will continue. The thing is, I do most of my editing here in Commons, adding blazons to existing coats of arms. I would like to add a babel userbox (like I have on my Wikipedia user page), which says that I speak Blazon. Over there the code is '''blz''' (as in '''bl'''a'''z'''on), but here blz produces Balantak, which sharp eyed readers will note, doesn't have many Zs in it. Is there any way to get this sorted out? It seems that an Administrator is required. Is it important? No, of course not. But it would be nice when I add blazons, people could check my userpage and see that I know what I am talking about.

:''blz'' actually is the ISO 639-3 code for the [[:en:Balantak language|Balantak language]]. For [[:en:Blazon|Blazon]] (I think, am I correct?) you need to "invent" a new abbreviation. [[User:Rbrausse|Rbrausse]] ([[User talk:Rbrausse|talk]]) 16:05, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
