  The data will be there whether the code is added or not. If it's not 
approved, people will continue lumping it under `mis` along with all the other 
languages whose codes aren't accepted.
  
  Here's a bunch of examples:
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2012993
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1027770
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q11352202
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q56192539
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q262983
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q1243582
  https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q2936533
  
  As for copyright implications, I don't think enabling the code will introduce 
any issues which aren't already there. Wikidata is already storing Klingon text 
(as you can see above), just without a proper language code. There are 20 
Wiktionaries <https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q8574920> with entries in Klingon. 
The English Wiktionary <https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Category:Klingon_lemmas> 
has over 2000 entries. Some Wiktionaries have entries over 15 years old 
<https://fr.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?oldid=559899>.
