As discussed, I've made a sound file (ogg.vorbis) to be added to the IPA rendition of the name: D'oyly-carte-spoken.ogg Tim riley talk 06:54, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note to responder: this can be added as {{IPA-all|ˈdɔɪli kɑːt||D'oyly-carte-spoken.ogg}}: [ˈdɔɪli kɑːt] . Note the empty parameter between the transcription and the filename. Nardog (talk) 07:36, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I support substituting the sound file for the IPA guide that is currently at the top of the article. -- Ssilvers (talk) 07:38, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I second this. {{pronunciation}} replacing {{IPA-all}}. ~ IvanScrooge98 (talk) 09:30, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Do we even need the word "pronunciation", or is the little player symbol enough? -- Ssilvers (talk) 17:44, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not necessary actually, but I think it’s better if it’s immediately identifiable. ~ IvanScrooge98 (talk) 18:21, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
