Near-open central vowel
I've already added this one to the 'exceptioned name list'. So it is audible here too, automated: Template:IPA chart vowels with audio. Good you found & added that one. Since I am not an expert in IPA, can you explain why there is "unrounded" in the filename? To me the vowel-trapezium says the sound is in-between. -DePiep (talk) 23:14, 24 December 2011 (UTC)
 * The terms "unrounded" and "rounded" refer to the rounding of the lips during the articulation of the vowel. The vowel is in-between in the trapezium because it is central, not because it is unrounded. Theoretically, there could be a near-open central rounded vowel, but I know of no language that contains one and it is most likely very rare cross-linguistically. This is why there is no official IPA symbol for it. Because its rounded counterpart is so rare, most of the time the word "unrounded" is omitted. The name of the sound file could probably be changed to match the article. --Montgolfière (talk) 15:20, 25 December 2011 (UTC)
 * I understand the Central line, but I meant to point out that the vowel in the IPA chart (IPA vowel chart 2005.png) is not lefthand side, while the near-open front unrounded vowel æ is on the lefthand side of the bullet. So, clearly the rounded one is not used, but still then I'd expect this one to be on the lefthand side of a bullet. But maybe I am too theoretical, and is the phonetic world not that black-and-white. Anyway, if you know of other soundfiles not yet available in this, I'd like to know. -DePiep (talk) 20:56, 25 December 2011 (UTC).

Map was cool

Gospel of Marcion
Hi, about your additions to the Gospel of Marcion - there is one sentence that reads like original researcy or synthesis - "If the claims of the Church Fathers...then the relative priority..." - making an if/then statement sounds as if you have drawn your own conclusion; it may be based on sources, but is not explicitly stated by any of the sources - if there is a reference for this conclusion it would be a good idea to add it to the article; if there is no source for this conclusion it should be removed or reworded - also, there's a small formatting issue: the links for John Knox and Joseph B. Tyson have external links in the body of the text and according to External links, external links "should not normally be placed in the body of an article" - hope this helps to improve your addition - cheers - Epinoia (talk) 17:44, 25 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your recommendations! I just removed the sentence you mentioned and got rid of the external links. I had added the external links because originally they were dead links to non-existent Wikipedia pages, but not having a link at all is also fine. Montgolfière (talk) 18:07, 25 May 2019 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Newcomb's paradox into Evidential decision theory. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 23:38, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
