I noticed a lack of some languages, such as toki pona, Esperanto, Urdu, Lao, Yiddish, Tamil, and Amharic, which some games on IGDB (Minecraft for example supporting at least toki pona, Esperanto, Yiddish, and Tamil from what I remember) supporting those languages, it'd be cool if those could be added, and or the Language List could be synced to the SIL ISO 639-3 database.

Generally, languages (along with other things like specific platforms) have been added based on the number of examples there are of them being in use. Providing a good list of titles where these specific languages are in use is always something than helps push things along. (The more the better) 🙂

A quick look on Steam shows these languages and how many games have them listed as available in their games.
(just a note, some games do list all/most languages as available, I have no way of really knowing if that is true and I think the language options on Steam is just a checkbox that the developer checks)
You might need to download/copy the image somewhere to better see it

A few games I know have built in toki pona support that are on IGDB:

https://www.igdb.com/games/toki-pona-island Literally a game meant for learning/practicing the language
https://www.igdb.com/games/kiwen-kon
https://www.igdb.com/games/minecraft-java-edition
https://www.igdb.com/games/vrchat
https://www.igdb.com/games/lichess
https://www.igdb.com/games/trails *1
https://www.igdb.com/games/brew--1 *2

*1: The game supports sitelen pona (the language's writing system), but not sitelen Lasina (Latin Script)
*2: My game (Brew!) supports it, but not in a public build; as the game is not finished.

Adding this for feature support.
