We cleaned up languages that lacked a significant amount of translations, and since then the website doesn't appear to support Persian. https://l10n.elementary.io/projects/website/#languages We would need to generate new template files and add Persian to the list so translation can start.

Different from our desktop components, this repository doesn't seem to have translation templates and Weblate reports that as a warning so we've been disabling the feature of starting new language from the templates. It would be great if we could add templates and re-enable this function which would also allow translators themselves can start new translations of their languages!

Is this still something we want to add? I believe the list is in _backend/Lib/L10n.php

We have some languages like Punjabi with no translations, while some with full translations will never be shown because the website only allows translations that are specifically hard-coded in that list to be loaded. It might be worth going through and seeing which we should drop and which we should add.
