I support adding a subtag for this orthographical variant.  It's been 
shown to exist, to be clearly defined, and to have a non-trivial amount 
of extant taggable material, and that is what matters.  Any other 
considerations of locales, Wiki pages, etc. are outside our domain.

The subtag chosen should be that preferred by the proponents.  I frankly 
think we spend too much time worrying about the exact form of the 
subtag.  Users are going to have to get used to 'cmn' for Mandarin and 
'yue' for Cantonese and 'hsn' for Xiang.; the difference between 
'tarask' and 'tarash' and 'tarashk' seems minor in comparison.  I think 
once we've established that a subtag should be added, the spelling is 
really sort of a clerical detail.
