Is the language code 'nrm' used in 'evangelist' theme correct? #1

nrm does not appear in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-2_codes, but

Since http://www.ethnologue.com/language/nrm claims Narom is "unwritten", in what language is the list under evangelist/nrm? Norman, Narom or something else?

If there is an ISO code for that language, that code would be the preferred category name.

It actually comes from https://nrm.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%89vaung%C3%B9ieus, which is the wikipedia in the language spoken in Normandy, aka Norman. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_language, there's no ISO 639-3 code for that language; but it refers to Linguist List codes fra-nor and xno, and Linguasphere codes 51-AAA-hc and 51-AAA-hd.

Odd that ISO 639-3 does not have an entry for Norman.
