I've filed an enhancement request in the bug tracker:

https://alioth.debian.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=314310&group_id=30316&atid=413077

I am curious what you guys think about the idea of adding WP-en wiki links
as translator comments to improve the ease of translating the iso-code PO
files. In many cases a localizer can simply follow the interwiki link to
their own language's wiki and copy-and-paste the relevant translation, in
other case (where there is no corresponding article in their own languages
wiki) they will at least have a decent article reference to provide them
context for what are often very terse and obscure entries.

See attached example for the iso_639-3.42.pot
