IPA on Yggdrasil Article
[edit]Hello :) May I ask why you removed the IPA for the pronunciation for Yggdrasil in 2019? Sorry for asking about something from so long ago. I did see the whole drama on the talk page about it in 2009, but saw nothing from around the time it was removed. Just asking because it was something I was looking for today and generally I go to Wikipedia for pronouncing words I don't speak the origin language of (or something from the same family). At the very least, there could be IPA for current Norwegian, I think? Thanks for your time. Caboshone (talk) 10:13, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
- At some point in the past we saw a wave of IPA additions that were unsourced and often dubious. This sounds like it was one of them. Wikipedia requires a WP:RS for any claim. :bloodofox: (talk) 20:19, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
- I did see that, but on most other pages, including many on Norwegian things (Svalbard for example), an Oxford English dictionary/ Collins dictionary is a source of sufficient quality to be used. It certainly has more utility than no IPA at all. In fact, a sufficient proportion of Wikipedia IPA sources are drawn from the Oxford or Collins Dictionaries, so I think it would be within reason to say that they're not sources of bad quality as judged by the Wiki-upkeeping public in general.

An apology
[edit]I said some unfair and uncharitable things about you a while ago. I let my emotions get the best of me. I want to apologize. Cullen328 (talk) 08:03, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @Cullen328:, don't worry about it. The issue was resolved. Thank you for letting me know. :bloodofox: (talk) 01:20, 24 September 2024 (UTC)
