#Are the pronunciations in italics and brackets to the right of each word the correct pronunciations, or the mis-pronunciations?  This isn't clear from the text.

In fact, at the risk o(contracted; show full)eted). Having said that, unless this article can provide some kind of encyclopedic context to many of the entries, they are simply idiomatic pronunciations.

I hope I am making myself clear.--[[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]] 19:55, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)


::::Perhaps then what is needed is a "copy to Wiktionary" template that indicates that this content is a good candidate to be content at Wiktionary without making any implications (real or imagined) that the content does not belong at Wikipedia. I can't really reply to any of your other points because it's not clear to me what the difference between "triviality" and a "lack of encyclopedicity" is. Also, I'm curious which entries you believe lack "encyclopedic context" and are simply "idiomatic pronunciations". [[User:Nohat|Nohat]] 20:36, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)
