      I'm in the process of adding several hundred Indigenous Australian releases to the musicbrainz, many of which are titled or sung in languages not available in the drop-downs. Below is a large list of languages, although I expect we would only use 10 to 20 of these.

      Alternatively, rather than just add extra languages every time someone creates an issue, maybe musicbrainz could adopt an existing comprehensive standard. In the past I have used the Australian Standard Classification of Languages, which is available for download here below:
