Language codes and names in this table override the BCP47 names in lang_name_table.

for those rare occasions when article titles don't fit with the normal '-language', this tablemaps language code to article title. Use of this table should be avoided and the use of redirects preferred asthat is the long-standing method of handling article names that don't fit with the normal pattern
