 I think any project when get 100% translated status for all their po files
in it, one can say that language is 100% supported.

I don't thing we should ignore the efforts of language translators by not
including partial translations. At least I see that can be a start for
localized user to get familiar with those translated strings in UI. But yes
assessing the translation quality is a different topic here.

 Let all languages be listed there. If decision need to be taken for
removal of partial translated languages then better remove all and have
only 100% translated languages else list all.
