I have just downloaded the upgrades for Internet Explorer 7 (version 7.0.5730.11), and I am sorry to say that the template ((IPA)) does not work well with it -- from what I can see, many diacritic modifiers to main IPA symbols show up as little square boxes, despite the use of the template (for an example, look at the dental affricate in the phoneme chart of the Wari' language). With the previous version of Internet Explorer everything went fine. Is there someone with the necessary template-making expertise who could fix this problem? --Smeira 12:10, 16 December 2006 (UTC) [Copied from Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Phonetics by Andreas (T) 13:26, 16 December 2006 (UTC)]

Could interwiki links for these languages be added? Thank you. :) --Kjoonlee 03:08, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Browsing Canadian Gaelic, I find that the IPA sequences are illegible. The main problem seems to be the ' ' entities, which are appearing as the letters "THSP" in a box, as in the image on the right (a screengrab of my browser's attempt to render the first example in 'Phonology'). The associated text is:

I'm using Mozilla 1.7.2 ("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040803"); I'm not sure how to find out what font it is picking up. Hv 15:27, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
 
; you will have to use the corresponding numeric entity. --cesarb 17:08, 9 March 2007 (UTC) 
in any WP pages? If so, I hope there is a bot fixing things up, because it doesn't sound like fun to do by hand. Hv 10:15, 15 March 2007 (UTC)lang
attributeThere should be some lang
attribute added to this, such as lang="x-IPA"

as a possible solution, but I agree that this needs more input first. --ais523 18:43, 23 March 2007 (UTC)It would be great to have the Template:IPA article placed into Category:IPA so that editors would be more aware of its existence. Or would placing this talk page in the category be an acceptable alternative? --Blainster 20:20, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
Not too long ago, most people putting IPA pronunciation into an article usually preceded it with a wikilink (IPA) to the IPA article to explain what it was. Now many of them use this template instead, perhaps thinking it might provide such a link, which it doesn't. I would like to see a link included in the template, if it would not make excessive work looking for instances in which the link was already separately provided. --Blainster 17:27, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
Could you please link sv:Mall:IPA? Thanks, – SmiddleTC@ 17:50, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
