Talk:Wait–weight merger

The cleanup needed is mostly an introduction. and the reference. What is the article about? I suspect that it is about pronunctation of words in two dialects of English. The article itself is way too technical for me to read let alone understand. Also who or what is "Wells"? I suspect a book but many have been written including "War of the Worlds" - but that probably isn't it. If you are referenceing a book, give a decent reference - title, author, isbn, publisher etc as well as 1982 would all help find it. Why are there no links out to the rest of Wikipedia - surely we have general artciles on dialect and maybe English dialects and other links to IPA and SAMPA or whatever the stuff you have in the boxes MSIE can't/doesn't display. -- SGBailey 23:33, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
