Comment(by MenThal):

 On closer inspection, I see that a separate "Norwegian" language has been
 added for Scratch project using language code "no". Per comments from the
 i18n-no mailing list[1], this is a deprecated code. (The same goes for
 code "nb_NO".) The preferred codes are:

 {{{
 Code | English name      | Norwegian name
 nb   | Norwegian Bokmål  | Norsk (bokmål)
 nn   | Norwegian Nynorsk | Norsk (nynorsk)
 }}}

 So the "nb_NO" should be renamed to "nb" only, and language title should
 be "Norwegian Bokmål" to be consistent with all the other languages listed
 on Pootle server. Sorry about the confusion.

 As for Scratch on "no", it should probably be moved into "nb" as well, but
 only after contacting the admin on the new "Norwegian" language entry.
 Since code "no" is deprecated and only an alias and it is usually refers
 to "nb", it should be avoided both for technical and standardization
 reasons.
