Hi, I was curious to know that do you only take contribution (Translation of Country names in various ways) for ISO-632-1 ( having two language code names) only? More clearly can i contribute for the translation of the country names in language with only three ISO codes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-2_codes like Santali language.. As i have seen only 2 iso coded languages contributions in translation.

I don't accept any kind of direct contribution as all country names are periodically and automatically updated from Wikipedia. If you want a language you need to point me to an URL where I can fetch those names from, and where the source can be trusted (like Wikipedia or an ISO website, etc)

Thanks for the reply @stefangabos , should the names be in table. I'm a Santali language Wikipedia contributor and want to contribute in Santali language, should i translate this page for Santali language Wikipedia

I have found one list of names of the countries but in categories section: This is a category page in Santali Wikipedia: https://sat.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E1%B1%9B%E1%B1%B7%E1%B1%9A%E1%B1%A0:%E1%B1%AB%E1%B1%A4%E1%B1%A5%E1%B1%9A%E1%B1%A2 will it work ?.

This where I am taking the country names from. You can create a page for your language using the closest one (if any) as an example.
