	* Language tags should be simply give a distinctive three-letter code for the primary language of that article, ''in that language'', with no variations for regional or dialectic variations. For example:		* Language tags should be simply give a distinctive three-letter code for the primary language of that article, ''in that language'', with no variations for regional or dialectic variations.

	* Category names that include accents probably should just go to the simplest ascii set for category tags. In article titles, we can keep the main article with the appropriate accenture, and use redirects from ascii-simple versions. But in category tags, there is no simple redirect method; items can be added to a non-existent category.

	** [[:Category:Laa]] not [[:Category:Láa]]		** [[:Category:Laa]] not <nowiki>[[Category:Láa]]</nowiki>

	* We should tag for each language that is substantively represented on a page.
