Hi!! I was really excited to read about this one so I'm glad I get to peer review it:)

I think your additions to the article are really interesting as well as vital! I wouldn't have thought to contrast it to other Spanish dialects, so that's really clever of you. Whenever you mention a linguistic concept, you explain it very well. Well enough for people who aren't very into linguistics or Spanish to understand.

Here are some suggestions I could think of:


 * Perhaps an English translation of Vamos a tomar una cerveza would be helpful for those who aren't very proficient in the language?
 * also for the examples you gave, maybe indent them for readability. Not really necessary, but I think it's easier to read things when they're kind of broken up into visual sections.
 * "The sentence Vamos a tomar una cerveza in a seseante dialect will be pronounced [Ba mo sa to ma ɾu na ser  βe sa] In a dialect that has the ceceo, on the other hand, this sentence will be pronounced [Ba mo sa to ma ɾu na θer  βe θa].
 * I don't think it's really necessary, but you could also link some of the locations Carribean Spanish is spoken in (Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Dominican) as well as Carribean Spanish as they have their own wiki pages. Just so it's easy for people to go back and forth maybe!
 * Also not necessary, but a lot of the language related pages on wiki have charts for how consonants or vowels are pronounced. One of those may help break it up from being a large block of text. Though, I think what you have is already pretty clear!!

I don't have too many suggestions. I think what you have is pretty fledged out already! Great work

hope I could be of help!! sorry for the lateness ;;
