Description Paul Poulain 2012-12-12 08:01:30 UTC
In MARC bibliographic frameworks, you can define a default value. I think this can be used to define a value for 008 field. In this case, the  DefaultLanguageField008 is useless and can be removed
Comment 1 Katrin Fischer 2012-12-28 00:03:37 UTC
There was a discussion on bug 9145, why a default value is not enough in some cases. I am linking both bugs together for now, not sure it's the same situation here.

Katrin, I don't see anything on bug 9145 related to this pref.

I think I confused the bug numbers again - but can't find the right bug now :(
Comment 5 Jonathan Druart 2020-12-16 09:26:45 UTC
We can't use the default value of a MARC subfield, the pref is used 3 characters of the field.

I don't think this is valid.
