One request, please add those pronunciations of important people, places etc to Commons, there is no better way of learning how something is to be pronounced for someone who is not failiar with your language.
Probably this goes without saying, but those interested in this will probably wish to read
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Pronunciation_files_requests
to request pronunciations, to fulfil pronunciation requests, and perhaps add links to pronunciation request pages on their own wikis.
cheers,

Hoi Well actually, I request all words in all languages :) This is a not really practical so I started with Dutch politicians that have been categorised on the English wikipedia. I will produce more pronunciations in this way. Basically, everyone knows how much of a mess it is when foreigners try to say something in your language. So have a look at the bigger wikipedia's and start adding those to commons. Add pronunciations and it will take some time before we will be asked to add this missing word or that .. Thanks, Gerard
