Hoi,
To celebrate the 5000th word of nl:wiktionary, I have uploaded 100 .ogg
files to Commons. These are Dutch words pronounced by me. While doing
this excercise, I have written a blurp about sound and how to handle it
on Wikimedia. The piece is still in Dutch, it is still in nl:wiktionary,
but I have asked the nl:wikipedia crowd to review it. When this is done,
I will translate it in English and post it in Meta ? en:Wikipedia ?
Please let me know..
No need to translate: if its for the whole of Wikimedia, it should go
on meta: somewhere, and people can translate, discuss, translate
discussions, etc. That's what it's for. Now, where is it at the
moment.. aha, found it:
http://nl.wiktionary.org/wiki/WikiWoordenboek:Geluid am I right?
From what I can gather (I know no Dutch, but
English+German gives me a
good start), this so far covers adding sounds far better
than it
covers accessing them. I was thinking about how to do this, and I came
to the conclusion that we really need *two* help pages: one to answer
"Help! How do I make this sound play?" and one to answer "How can I
contribute sounds to Wikimedia?"
I'm going to hash out some of my ideas on this at
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Multimedia; please join me.
