Chinese locale setting
Currently, the Zh slice seems to be composed of traditional chinese.
is there a way to retrieve other versions of chinese?
The best way for access and storage would be like this
zh-Hans
zh-Hant
zh-CN
zh-TW
etc.
but if this is not feasible, atleast the first two would be valuable
Yes, the current zh subset names seem weird to me too, but I don't think I can do anything about them: that's how Wikipedia structured their encyclopedias and where people have been contributing articles ๐คทโโ๏ธ. In turn, this determines the dumps.
The reference page List of Wikipedias allows you to sort by language, and you can check that there are only 4 chinese locales: zh, zh-classical, zh-min-nan, zh-yue, with their corresponding encyclopedia pages: https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/, https://zh-classical.wikipedia.org/wiki/, etc.
Does that answer your question?
yes. I have done some indepdenent investigation and i agree that there is nothing you can do on your end , at least easily or intuitively.
I am currently trying to find downstream solutions, and if i find any that would be relevant to your codebase i'll bring it to your attention
Thanks! I leave it up to you to close this issue if you think an upcoming proposal would need a different issue.
Cheers
