Request to WikiSpeak
Hi S Whistler, would you be able to read out Pearce Robinson article on Wiki, reason being is that there are many people who can understanding english but may not be able to read as well. I was listening to your work with some of the other articles on Wikipedia and i think it is fantastic work that you do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Capture2015 (talk • contribs) 11:34, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

CSI effect
Hey mate! I'm currently listening to your recording of CSI effect, which I brought through FAC. I must say, you have excellent diction and pacing, and your tone is perfect for this sort of thing. However, there were a few errors in the recording:


 * 6:45 &mdash; you say "Perry Mason 1957 to 1956" The 1956 should quite obviously be a 1966. The producers of the show did not, in fact, travel backwards in time.
 * 7:00 &mdash; you say "the success of the innocent project". The change of "successes" to "success" is trivial, but "innocent" to "innocence" garbles the intended meaning. The Innocent Project is a teacher training program, where as the Innocence Project is actually relevant.
 * 8:10 &mdash; you accidentally jumped backwards a line, resulting in some very mismatched sequencing: "...resulting in a higher rate of conviction when such evidence is present. While these and other effects may be caused by crime shows, the most commonly reported effect is that jurors are wrongly acquitting defendants despite conviction when such evidence is present. While these and other effects may be caused by crime shows, the most commonly reported effect..." [bolding mine]
 * 14:20 &mdash; you say "the forensics program at Florida International University and the University of California, Davis". Here, "program" needs to be pluralized. The singular form implies that the two schools are connected, which is simply not true.

I imagine that you'll be able to re-record these sections, yes? --Cryptic C62 · Talk 16:04, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Cryptic,

Thanks for the feedback, it's great to know that someone listens to these recordings. I've already made the corrections you mentioned - it's all too easy to miss a couple of things when editing... Thanks again. S Whistler (talk) 18:09, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

VHEMT
Hey, thanks for the recording of VHEMT! I've only gotten to listen to the lead, but thus far it sounds great. It's really cool to hear a recording of an article I helped write. Mark Arsten (talk) 15:36, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

- Hi Mark, no problem, I'm glad to hear you liked it. If you've contributed to any other articles you'd like recorded, just let me know, I take requests (featured articles preferred). S Whistler (talk) 13:29, 8 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Dude!! I'm also listening to your VHEMT article recording. Awesome job!! --  TyrS  chatties  00:38, 12 April 2012 (UTC)

Nice job on Wife selling
Thanks for that :) If you want something a little more salacious with which to whet your appetite, may I suggest Gropecunt Lane or Harris's List of Covent Garden Ladies? Parrot of Doom 10:40, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

Wikimedia Commons
Hi S Whistler. I think your files on the Wikipedia Spoken Project is great! I have just listened to File:1958 Tybee Island mid-air collision.ogg, and thought that your speed and intonation is perfect. Have you considered uploading the files directly to the Wikimedia Commons? This would save it having to be manually moved in the future. Regards,  iComputer  SaysNo 12:23, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

A kitten for you!
That George W. Bush article reading was great. You have a very clear voice.

Red Square
Hi! Thanks for the article you read, "Red Scare.ogg". However, have you noticed you say "red square" a couple of times? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 36.2.132.27 (talk) 03:36, 4 June 2016 (UTC)
