This section TEI:profileDesc/langUsage/language is outdated in many files, see http://syriaca.org/person/2000/tei

Following the model of 

<classDecl><taxonomy><category xml:id="syriaca-headword"><catDesc>The name used by Syriaca.org for document titles, citation, and
                                disambiguation. These names have been created according to the
                                Syriac.org guidelines for headwords: <ref target="http://syriaca.org/documentation/headwords.html">http://syriaca.org/documentation/headwords.html</ref>.</catDesc>

We propose to replace the existing lists in each document with:

New: <profileDesc><langUsage><p>Languages codes used in this record follow the Syriaca.org guidelines. Documentation available at: <ref target="http://syriaca.org/documentation/langusage.xml">http://syriaca.org/documentation/langusage.xm</ref>

Old:

@wlpotter I think we did this in another issue. Is that correct?

@davidamichelson yes, this was a data-wide change made in conjunction with #767
