Romani (rom) and Scandoromani (rmg-variant) is missing from monolingual text.
Noticed this while adding official name for Norway. Official names, that is monolingual text, will include far more names than whats included now. I think the whole set of language names should be included, possibly also languages that isn't in daily use.
Language kode for Kvensk (fkv) is added. It was included in the original report as missing.
Reported upstream: http://unicode.org/cldr/trac/ticket/9137
Seems like rom and rmg are also missing.
Note that rmg is one of three that is part of Scandoromani language, and that there is no metacode for Scandoromani. The other two are rmu and rmd.
In short, several small languages are missing.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northern_Romani_dialects
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scandoromani_language
These are all not present in neither of core/includes/Names.php, Cldr, UniversalLanguageSelector/data/langnames.ser, UniversalLanguaeSelector/lib/jquery.uls/src/jquery.uls.data.js. This means we can't rely on either of them.
Kvensk (fkv) is still not supported. Could be a data source problem, as Lydia says this is ready to go.
Observing that Scandoromani (rmg) is missing while Retoromani (rm) is added I assume this is a data source problem. How do we proceed on adding missing lnguage codes? Is there a common page where we can add them or request them?
Just report this upstream to get the names added to CLDR... https://translatewiki.net/wiki/CLDR
There was an old bug report about other languages in Bugzilla, not sure how to find it. Copy this to a new bug if necessary.
Only two of these existed on Wikidata (note that names can still exist even if the language is dead)
The names are Norwegian
Akkala-, Ter- and Kildin Sami Language uses Cyrillic script, Skolt Sami is still in use in Russia wit Cyrillic script. Skolt Sami in Finland is written with Latin script. All other uses Latin script.
Please check which are missing from CLDR display names: http://www.unicode.org/cldr/charts/28/summary/root.html
Some of these are even MediaWiki locales.
T74126 is the one where we've been collecting requests.
Out of the ones listed on these two tickets, goh, kea, lkt, rom, smj, smn and sms are listed on that CLDR page and ett, fkv, lld, koy, rmd, rmg, rmu, sia, sjd, sje, sjk, sjt, sju and tzl are not. ko-kore and sv-fi are also not listed, rmg-variant is not a valid language tag (as far as I'm aware), and sr-cyrl seems to duplicate sr-ec.
Of course, that's only the ones that people have explicitly mentioned here, there are plenty of others which are also missing.

Clearly. 7000 codes or so are "missing", but we need to identify those for which there is a sore need of translation.
What translation is needed and why does it have to be done before the codes can be added?
We do need most of ISO 639-3 (if nothing else, so that we can say what a language is called in the language itself). There has to be a better solution than doing requests one by one and waiting months if not years before they can be used... :/
Hi, just wanted to give you a heads-up that I am again actively working on this. I already implemented T72205, more is on the way :)
Hi, I'd like to add the three language codes from the task description according to the process I described on Help:Monolingual text languages. For that, could you please add official name statements for them to Norway, use mis as language code, qualify using language (P2439) with the correct language as value and add a reference?
If you do the same for the 11 Sami languages in the comment, I'll look into adding them as well.
Finnish language
Romani languages
Sami languages (Autonyms from Wikipedia, mostly sewiki)
This needs feedback!
The special language codes given at the help page does not work. (Only the lookup, can still enter the code)
Names for Porsanger municipality and Norway are added.
I have asked Sametinget and Språkrådet about additional entries.
Depends on how you try it.
Just tested it here: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q4115189&type=revision&diff=310814950&oldid=310757934 and it works fine.
Kvensk (fkv) seems to be added, Romani/Romanes (rom) is added as rmy (?), and Scandoromani/Romani rakripa is still missing.
rmy was available the whole time because there's a Wikipedia using that code (https://rmy.wikipedia.org/).
As far as I can tell, rom and rmg weren't added because you didn't add any statements which need them (see T74590#2058955 above) and now nobody seems to really be working on these requests.
Vlax Romani language (rmy) is one of several language variants. Romani language (rom) is the greater language group.
Please make a request per Help:Monolingual_text_languages#Getting_a_language_code_added for each one that is still needed.
