Oregon pronunciation
I grew up in Oregon, am not a linguist, and was just wondering if you think ɒr and ɔr are even pronounced differently there. IPA_for_English lists 'moral' as an example for the former and 'north' as one for the latter, but as far as I'm concerned those words have the same initial vowel sound! Can you shed any light on the distinction? Thanks. Ulmanor (talk) 04:43, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:24, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
