Hi @danielbachhuber, I have added the Indian Bengali language code (bn_IN) to the forked gist. This was introduced in 2019, and you created this gist in 2020. So it is obvious that the locale wouldn't be there. Kindly accept the modification. You may visit the locale page at https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/teams/?locale=bn_IN.
Regards,
