Description Liangent 2013-06-16 17:58:08 UTC
Maybe use a fallback language instead?
Comment 1 Niklas Laxström 2013-06-16 20:35:17 UTC
If it is blacklisted, how comes such translation exists?

They were created before bug 37338 was fixed; just ask them to be deleted.
This is not worth an exception in Special:MyLanguage; more, it would be counter-productive for many older pages for which there's no guarantee that the most complete/best translation is at the correct code.
