This is a closed discussion about a failed proposed change on SmashWiki. It remains for archival purposes. The closing administrator adds: "No traction in over a year and a half, and this "issue" is solved by just a few words in the intro paragraph. Omega Tyrant 19:13, April 18, 2023 (EDT)"

I think it would be a neat addition that could help commentators when it comes to saying a player's tag on stream, and it would help reduce confusion. Of course you'd only be able to add pronunciations that are already confirmed by the player. Luigi86101 (talk) 15:51, August 14, 2021 (EDT)

Slight oppose. I don’t really see much point in doing this, given that hard-to-pronounce names simply don’t come along that often. In the event that one does, we can just throw in a quick “(pronounced such-and-such)” in the leading paragraph of an article, which we already do, in fact. Black Vulpine of the 🦊Furry Nation🐺.

Ah, wasn't aware we already did that for some people, it only came to mind since Atomsk's page didn't have one. And I agree that it'd only really be useful for the harder to pronounce tags. Luigi86101 (talk) 16:48, August 14, 2021 (EDT)

Slight Oppose

Agree w/ black vulpine - also seems like this has been resolved (Luigi realized we already do that for player pages), can we remove this from proposals? However, unless the issue has not been resolved and anyone else would still like to discuss this we can keep it up. - Flarco (talk) 11:08, January 18, 2022 (EST)
