== 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. - [[User:Flarco|Flarco]] ([[User talk:Flarco|talk]]) 11:08, January 18, 2022 (EST)

Forums: Index Proposals Adding a section for the pronunciation of a player's tag?
Proposed.png This discussion is in regards to a proposed change on SmashWiki. The discussion must first meet with a consensus before it is implemented.

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🐺.

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)
