Is it possible to change an established interwiki title? My question concerns interwikis that link to Uzbek edition wikis, they read '''O'zbek''', but more correct title would be '''Oʻzbekcha'''.
Please provide a trustworthy reference.

Thank you for your bug report and to have supplied the relevant references. Taking this bug.

Given that CLDR has "Ўзбек" as autonym, I do wonder if it's a good idea to change. Can you provide a little background on what the difference is between "O'zbek" and "Oʻzbekcha", aside from the apostrophe?
The "-cha" ("-çe", "-ça", "-sha") suffix is typical in Turkic languages, it forms a language name from nationality name (e.g. http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/-%C3%A7a ). There is also "Oʻzbek tili" expression (which was shortened to current interwiki title "Oʻzbek"), but it means "Language of Uzbek", and we need to change it to "Oʻzbekcha" ("Uzbek language").
Merged. Thanks for the explanations, and Dereckson thanks for the patch.
