Note: The ku-SY example under the "Country locales" heading is okay, however, script tags have been added to many of the current "ku*" locales now. There is no longer a ku_SY.xml, but rather ku_Latn_SY.xml. If anyone knows of a better example, please let me know. |

| - For the locale submission for "pap" (ticket [CLDR-14872](https://unicode-org.atlassian.net/browse/CLDR-14872) and pull request [PR#2542](https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/pull/2542)), the region "CW" did not appear in the "timeData" information and needed to be added to the appropriate location. | ||

| #### Optional additions | ||
| - Plural rules are not needed until the locale needs to move beyond Basic level. If plural rule information is available, it could be added at the same time the locale is established. Add them to **common/supplemental/plurals.xml** and **common/supplemental/ordinals.xml**. |

Can we actually put that Plural rules are strong recommended? We've had several locales which have started contributing beyond basic without plural rules recently.
We may want to include what the impact is if plural rules are not available.

I added a "strongly recommended" line, but didn't quite know how to phrase the impact of not having them.

@macchiati Would you have a few minutes to review this "Adding a locale" page? |

| See [Update Language Script Info](/development/updating-codes/update-language-script-info) and [LikelySubtags and Default Content](/development/updating-codes/likelysubtags-and-default-content) for information on how to use the language, script, region and population data to verify that the information in [country_language_population.tsv](https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/tools/cldr-code/src/main/resources/org/unicode/cldr/util/data/country_language_population.tsv) and [language_script.tsv](https://github.com/unicode-org/cldr/blob/main/tools/cldr-code/src/main/resources/org/unicode/cldr/util/data/language_script.tsv) is correct. If changes are needed, correct an existing entry or add a new one as appropriate. Include references. |

We should discuss guidelines for markdown. I strongly favor semantic line breaks and link references.
Both make future diffing and reading the raw text much easier. The semantic line breaks are very easy to to (except that we can't do them in tables).

If you want to enforce them, we either need a lint or a tool that automatically processes the markdown otherwise it is too hard to ensure consistency.

@macchiati @srl295 I think I've incorporated changes in response to feedback. Looking for reapproval. |

Sorry, I added a bullet point so that the "Add the rules" line would be more obvious. |
