Pronunciations?  David, didn't think I wouldn't notice? hehe  Pet peeves are funny, huh? :)  anyway, wu'ebs.  [[User:Fcsuper|Fcsuper]] 23:54, 27 March 2008 (EDT)

::Didn't notice? It's not that; it was decided including pronunciations in the bulk of the text lowered the overall quality of the in-universe article. And . . . not everyone agreed with the pronunciations supplied. :P And not just me, I mean other Americans, too. -- Cdre. [[User:David Vaughan|David Vaughan]] 02:13, 28 March 2008 (EDT)

:::Well, I disagreed, of course to that "lowered" comment.  Encyclopedias frequently have that sort of information.  Stuff like that adds depth to the fictional universe.  It is as in-universe as one can get.  Anyway, about the pronunciations themselves, I doubt "not everyone" means that that there was some heated debates.   I didn't notice anything in the discussion tabs.  Anyway, it was never meant to be the final say or the final system used.   Besides, I came up with many of the names myself, so I can say how they are said. ;) [[User:Fcsuper|Fcsuper]] 23:40, 17 April 2008 (EDT)

::::There was no heated discussion. I discussed the issue with various other members on IRC, and it was decided that the pronunciations lowered the quality rather than contributed to them. At best they should in Behind the scenes in the out of universe context, but I don't think they should be in there at all. Put simply, other North Americans I discussed this with thought the pronunciations were retarded. So it's not just me. Ergo, I got rid of them because this wiki is primarily a fictional resource. -- [[User:David Vaughan|David Vaughan]] 22:41, 19 April 2008 (EDT)
