[Mediawiki-i18n] The name of your language in MediaWiki - action required

[Soslan Khubulov]

Hi Amir,

I found language name for Czech is not correct. In the array its name is *
Česky*,* *but it seems that is not the name. The sources are article
about Czech
language <http://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%8Ce%C5%A1tina>,
česky<http://cs.wiktionary.org/wiki/%C4%8Desky>entry in wikitionaryand
čeština <http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%C4%8De%C5%A1tina> entry in
wikitionary.

Thanks,
Soslan
