Hello,

I remember there was in LanguageXx(x).php a grammar rule for the project 
names. But they are deleted now. Why?

It was a switch command for the grammatical cases of all wiki projects - 
here for Upper Sorbian:

switch ( $case ) {
			case 'genitiw': # genitive
				if ( $word == 'Wikipedija' ) {
					$word = 'Wikipedije';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikiknihi' ) {
					$word = 'Wikiknih';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikinowiny' ) {
					$word = 'Wikinowin';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikižórło' ) {
					$word = 'Wikižórła';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikicitaty' ) {
					$word = 'Wikicitatow';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikisłownik' ) {
					$word = 'Wikisłownika';
				}
				break;
			case 'datiw': # dativ
				if ( $word == 'Wikipedija' ) {
					$word = 'Wikipediji';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikiknihi' ) {
					$word = 'Wikikniham';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikinowiny' ) {
					$word = 'Wikinowinam';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikižórło' ) {
					$word = 'Wikižórłu';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikicitaty' ) {
					$word = 'Wikicitatam';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikisłownik' ) {
					$word = 'Wikisłownikej';
				}
				break;
			case 'akuzativ': # akuzativ
				if ( $word == 'Wikipedija' ) {
					$word = 'Wikipediju';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikiknihi' ) {
					$word = 'Wikiknknihi';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikinowiny' ) {
					$word = 'Wikinowiny';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikižórło' ) {
					$word = 'Wikižórło';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikicitaty' ) {
					$word = 'Wikicitaty';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikisłownik' ) {
					$word = 'Wikisłownik';
				}
				break;
			case 'instrumental': # instrumental
				if ( $word == 'Wikipedija' ) {
					$word = 'Wikipediju';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikiknihi' ) {
					$word = 'Wikiknihami';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikinowiny' ) {
					$word = 'Wikinowinami';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikižórło' ) {
					$word = 'Wikižórłom';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikicitaty' ) {
					$word = 'Wikicitatami';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikisłownik' ) {
					$word = 'Wikisłownikom';
				} else {
					$word = 'z ' . $word;
				}
				break;
			case 'lokatiw': # lokatiw
				if ( $word == 'Wikipedija' ) {
					$word = 'Wikipediji';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikiknihi' ) {
					$word = 'Wikiknihach';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikinowiny' ) {
					$word = 'Wikinowinach';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikižórło' ) {
					$word = 'Wikižórłu';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikicitaty' ) {
					$word = 'Wikicitatach';
				} elseif ( $word == 'Wikisłownik' ) {
					$word = 'Wikisłowniku';
				} else {
					$word = 'wo ' . $word;
				}
				break;
			}
		
		return $word; # this will return the original value for 'nominatiw' 
(nominativ) and all undefined case values
	}

I don't know why it was deleted in LanguageHsb.php. And AFAIK Czech had 
such a switch command in its languageCs.php as well.
