The distinction between languages and dialects is not clear-cut. A lect that some regard as a dialect of a certain language may be regarded as a full, separate language by others. This page contains a list of languages and their (ISO-code-having) dialects, with notes on whether or not the dialects are treated as separate languages on Wiktionary. If there is no note about the status of a particular language+dialect group, the situation is not yet regulated. If multiple dialects are treated as a single language on Wiktionary, but there is no ISO code that represents all of them, the code of one of the dialects is used as the code for the whole language, or an exceptional code is created (for more, see Wiktionary:Languages).

For the most part, this page documents cases where Wiktionary’s treatment of lects deviates from that of the ISO/SIL, e.g. cases where we have merged lects that they have not. Cases where an ISO code has been excluded from Wiktionary altogether (typically because it was too vague to be meaningful) are also documented. Cases where the ISO/SIL itself has merged lects which they formerly granted separate codes, and we have followed suit, are not necessarily documented here.

Discussions about splitting, merging, deleting, adding or renaming lects may be archived to Wiktionary:Language treatment/Discussions (WT:LTD). (Do not start or continue discussions on that page; do that in an appropriate community forum, such as WT:BP or WT:RFM.)

Excluded codes

The following ISO 639-3 codes have been excluded without being subsumed into a single other code:

• bpw (“Bo”, “Po”, “Sorimi”) is excluded for now because its existence as a distinct language is unconfirmed and undocumented, and if it were included, a naming conflict would exist with bgl (discussion).
• bzt (“Brithenig”), a minor constructed language (see Şablon:section link).
• cdg (“Chamari”), spurious according to Glottolog (see Şablon:section link); it’s a caste, not a language.
• dgu (“Degaru/Dhekaru”), spurious according to Ethnologue (see w:Dhekaru); it’s a caste, not a language.
• dws (“Dutton World Speedwords”), a minor constructed language (see Şablon:section link).
• ekc, called “Eastern Karnic” by the ISO, is excluded from Wiktionary because it is not clear that there is any data for this “language”, or even that it is a single real language.
• ghc, called “Hiberno-Scottish Gaelic” by the ISO, is treated as Irish (ga) or Scottish (gd) according to whether the word in question is from an Irish text, a Scottish one, or both (discussion).
• gok (“Gowli”), spurious according to Glottolog (see w:Spurious languages); it’s a caste, not a language.
• jrt (“Jorto”), spurious (discussion).
• luw (“Luo”), an unclassified extinct language, is excluded for now because no includable content in it has been put forth, and if it were included, a naming conflict would exist with luo.
• myi (“Mina (India)”) is excluded because it is spurious. Furthermore, if it were included, a naming conflict would exist with hna.
• vms (“Moksela”) is extinct and unattested (see Moksela language).
• wai (“Wares”), spurious (discussion).
• wwb (“Wakabunga”), an unclassified extinct language, is excluded for now because no includable content in it exists: the only wordlist which was labelled Wakabunga turned out to be Kalkatungu.
• yrs (“Yarsun”), spurious (discussion).
• zbl (“Blissymbols”, “Blissymbolics”, “Semantography”), a minor constructed language / script (see Şablon:section link).
• zxx, the code for “No linguistic content”.
