Some of you may recall my successful microgrant application, to obtain
a Zoom H1 digital audio recorder.
It's taken a while, but the first four files made with that device are
now on Commons:

and used in the English Wikipedia articles about their respective
subjects. More are in the pipeline.
This is part of the project I started, to add recordings of article
subjects speaking, so that we know what they sound like and how they
pronounce their names:

Files may also be uploaded by subjects, emailed to me, or uploaded by
other Wikipedians. Do you know someone who might contribute?
