Since Locales.txt reflects the languages supported by an organization -- this change adds missing records for locales supported by Meta. This will inform users what locales Meta supports and it will enable Meta linguists to contribute to these languages in the survey tool.

Locales are differentiated by support level by the availability by app.

  • Modern: If it is offered on the flapship app Facebook for Android
  • Moderate: Only on Meta's emerging markets app Facebook Lite
  • Basic supported on their web app -- driven by community input. See announcements for Inukitut and Friulian

I'll need to downgrade locales to max out at their current CLDR coverage and temporarily withhold the 11 ckb, fur, gn, ht, iu, ku, ln, mg, rn, sn, ss.

Also I still need to confirm with current Meta i18n team members.

Cancelling this change -- checking with Meta it is not what they intended. I'll follow up with them for additional support.
