This is the language bar:

We should rephrase the wording to be agnostic. I.e. instead of:

WordPress is also available in Dansk (also Svenska).

it should be

WordPress is also available in Dansk, Svenska.

Instead of:

WordPress también está disponible en Español (también Català, galego).

it should be

WordPress también está disponible en Español, Català, galego.

The string here is returned from the lang-guess/lang-guess-ajax.php which lives in dotorg.trac. (this is just a developer note)

In fact, a small nuance @thetinyl

In en the languages are capitalized, but that isn't true for all –in es they aren't. So the issue is still true (needs to be consistent) but worth adding the capitalization nuance for each idiom.

This is being tracked on meta.trac in these tickets #6600, #6599.

I left a comment with my latest work there. This string is API generated/pulled from locale databases, it's not something a content editor can update.

I've deployed a fix that updates the strings used here— it should now read:

WordPress también está disponible en Español, Català y Galego.
