I saw several locales using "%%" and many more using exactly the same format
but with a single "%". I guess it is a typo copied several times.

I've already adjusted sah_RU to contain the same as ru_RU.

You or me or whoever. I've added this already in the attached patch.

I've checked the Yakut alphabet in Wikipedia and I've added this change and
also some more:

* "Ҕ" after "Ӷ" and before "Д" (otherwise would be between "Ӻ" and "Ӷ"),
* "Дь" after "Ԃ" and before "Ҙ" (otherwise would be between "Дӹ" and "Дҍ"),
* "Ҥ" after "Ԋ" (otherwise would be between "Ԣ" and "Њ"),
* immediately followed by "Нь" (which otherwise would be between "Нӹ" and "Нҍ")
and by "О",
* "Ө" is by default after "Ӧ" and before "Ӫ", I think it is fine and I leave it
unchanged,
* also "Ү" is by default after "Ӯ" and before "Ұ", also I think that no change
is needed.

I still can't understand what is the "<PCL>" symbol in your collating rules. If
you can't explain then I will remove it and use the symbols which I can
understand.

I can't see any problem with your English but my English is also not perfect.
