Template:IPA is permanently protected from editing because it is a heavily used or highly visible template. Substantial changes should first be proposed and discussed here on this page. If the proposal is uncontroversial or has been discussed and is supported by consensus, editors may use ((edit template-protected)) to notify an administrator or template editor to make the requested edit. Usually, any contributor may edit the template's documentation to add usage notes or categories.
Any contributor may edit the template's sandbox. Functionality of the template can be checked using test cases. |

Take for instance the following paragraph:
In English, the longest possible initial cluster is three consonants, as in split /ˈsplɪt/, strudel /ˈstruːdəl/, strengths /ˈstrɛŋkθs/, and "squirrel" /ˈskwɪrəl/, all beginning with the /s/ or /ʃ/, containing /p/, /t/, or /k/, and ending with /l/, /r/, or /w/.
Viewing on mobile, many of these have a line break after the initial slash. It should be nowrapped. Nixinova T C 00:50, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
All pages using this template seem to be loading slowly now? John Womble (talk) 10:09, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
@Nardog: It looks like this edit might have coincided with some templates breaking down the line, possibly limited to pages that use ((IPA-ja))? The Godzilla article now has line breaks instead of some of its content, in the first sentence. Other articles like wasabi were fine after forcing a cache purge of the page, but it isn't working for everything.
I'm not sure if or how it relates to this template, but only started noticing the issue today. Belbury (talk) 10:14, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
@Nardog: This template is suddenly causing a bunch of div-span-flip lint errors in Kashmiri language, Talk:Jian'ou dialect, Geʽez, Talk:American English/Archive 4, Talk:Chastity, Talk:Almond. —Anomalocaris (talk) 21:26, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
The new module overrides table text-wrapping rules (forces wrapping), meaning lyric tables such as on Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau now look awful. This should be fixed; nowrap should be made default; or a parameter-filling operation should be rolled out. · • SUM1 • · (talk) 05:24, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
<span class="wrap">...</span>
. A side effect of this is that nowrap at an element containing the IPA template no longer takes effect inside the transcription, but this is trivial compared to the benefit, and you can always use |wrap=
to change the template's behavior. Nardog (talk) 09:02, 25 September 2023 (UTC)You are invited to join the discussion at Module talk:IPA/data § Template-protected edit request on 10 November 2023. Psiĥedelisto (talk • contribs) please always ping! 05:10, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

Could the template detect if the text is surrounded by / / or [ ] to not add them itself? Currently we can have ugly things like /[rɪd]/ and French pronunciation: [/fʁɑ̃sɛ/]. -- Error (talk) 17:10, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
Recently, an editor used this template to wrap a block of content that was already wrapped in <poem>...</poem>
tags, which caused a Linter "span tag wrapping a div tag" error. I reverted because I didn't see a way for this template to emit div tags, and I didn't know if that would be useful.
I added a test case, since removed because I don't want to clutter up the Linter error reports, showing how the template was used in that case. If it would be useful and in conformity with the purpose of this template, a |div=yes
option could presumably be added to the module code; that option would use div tags instead of span tags in this template's output. We inserted a similar option into ((Collapsed infobox section begin)) to fix Linter errors that cropped up in some situations. – Jonesey95 (talk) 22:09, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
((IPA))
inside <poem>...</poem>
instead of the other way around. Nardog (talk) 00:57, 29 May 2024 (UTC)inputting ((IPA|pt-BR|...))
generates a text in incompatible fonts (seemingly with HTML sans-serif
when I inspected it), when the same template with ((IPA|pt|...))
uses default fonts. Juwan (talk) 14:08, 1 August 2024 (UTC)
