Consider adding a note about what ISO language codes are suitable for the name:* property. Specifically, ISO-639-3 updated several major language codes, including:

dut -> nld
fre -> fra
chi -> zho
ger -> deu

At minimum, include a link to an ISO page and blurb about how ISO language codes are used.
