Is that you, Mark? - Haukur Þorgeirsson
First of all, please see WP:3RR.
I accept that you have a point, although I also think there's a strong case for having the various transcriptions there. One way forward might be to create a page with a table with the alternative transcriptions, with a clear link from the chart page there.

Please see my comments at Talk:Union Flag. I am a bit bothered that you reverted the move before participating in the discussion, without responding to the reasons provided, and based on misconceptions about Wikipedia procedure. I wonder what makes you sure that your interpretation of policy is correct - have you got much experience working with naming conventions here? - GTBacchus( talk) 05:11, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
I seem to be stepping on your toes a bit. To clarify my edits, there's no reason to merge the cells for two different dialects if there are two different example words, according to Australian English phonology and New Zealand English the vowel in nurse is [ɘ] for AUE and [ɵ] for NZE, and there's no writing system for paici so there's no reason to unmerge the cells. For more information, see the guidelines for these tables here. Ƶ§œš¹ [aɪm ˈfɻɛ̃ⁿdˡi] 07:40, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Hello, You appear to have taken part in a vote to move Building of the World Trade Center. A new poll is in progress and your vote is appreciated!

Hi Marco—in response to your query at the Australia talk page, the disadvantages of using the function are set out under cap in a section above your post. We're keen to receive feedback on the matter. Might I add that the differences between 17 February and February 17 are rather trivial at best, and most English-speakers have been exposed to both formats. American WPians see international formatting after every signature on talk pages, for example. But more important are our readers out there. Tony (talk) 03:47, 27 July 2008 (UTC)
This old chestnut has reared its head again - as you commented before I thought I'd let you know in case you wish to do so again: Talk:Clock Tower, Palace of Westminster

Can you pelase explain further, as there is no hint of a final "r" sound in "LAW-la". Supt. of Printing ( talk) 10:48, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Thylacine. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Bidgee ( talk) 04:53, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
That pronunciation has long been acceptable to Melbournians, so I doubt it will prove to be inaccurate. You might want to fact-tag it, but I don't see a reason to comment it out. It's also more likely to get fixed if it's visible. kwami ( talk) 07:08, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi Marco, thanks for adding refs to some of my rough'n'ready IPA transcriptions. One question, however: Does the Macquarie treat every unstressed vowel as " schwa", per this? I lived in Mundubbera for some time—of course my opinion carries no weight for wiki purposes—but I would have said the last two vowel sounds are completely different with the first being an unstressed " ɛ". Oh well, can't fight the lexicographers ... Cheers, Mattinbgn\ talk 08:19, 14 July 2009 (UTC)
Hi, I noticed you reinserted the rhotic pronunciations of Jervis Bay. Maybe we can find a compromise.
Doesn't it seem a bit superfluous to have three different pronunciations given? I mean, everyone knows that the Australian accent is non-rhotic, so anyone who understands IPA and prefers to speak with a rhotic accent will be able to insert the R for themselves. Also, giving a rhotic pronunciation first violates the national varieties of English rule.
Likewise, there's no need to convert /ɑː/ into /aː/ - anyone who cares about Australian accents can do that themselves. The only time local pronunciations are necessary is when they're unpredictable, like /ɜː/ instead of /aː/.
Here's my suggestion: we first give /ˈdʒɑ(r)vɨs/ as the standard pronunciation, because it's the broadest transcription, then [ˈdʒɜːvəs] as the local.
Also, do you have a source saying that John Jervis spoke with a rhotic accent? Nick ( talk) 19:58, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
Your redirect has been reverted, as the topic is NOT the rule book, but rather the rules themselves. Australian Football is a term that is too general for a worldwide encyclopedia such as this, so the full term of Australian Rules Football MUST be used to avoid confusion. any questions should be directed to the talk page here or at WP:AFL.

Hello not sure of IPA but AL/ez/TREE is correct (g-g-grandad's property before the parish and locality); minor diff from Derbyshire pronunciation Cheers Crusoe8181 ( talk) 10:03, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Shire of Campaspe may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
Thanks, BracketBot ( talk) 14:56, 12 December 2013 (UTC)
