Audio files

Jump to navigation Jump to search

Actually a previous editor did create a gadget for allowing editors to record and upload pronunciation audio files. If you look at today's WOTD, charlotte russe, in the "Pronunciation" section you will see a black circle and the words "Add audio pronunciation". Clicking the circle allows you to make a recording using the microphone on your computer or device. The problem is that there is now something wrong with the gadget – the audio file created does not properly upload to the Wikimedia Commons. I reported this at the Grease Pit some time ago but either no one knows how to fix it, or no one is interested to do so. I wonder if you can assist in this regard?

I don't think I can see the black circle but I am guessing you are referring to User:Yair rand/AddAudio.js, which has been added to your personal scripts page.

The concept of the tool is great but I simply don't have the skills to repair it.

No worries, then. I wish somebody did!

If possible we should promote this as a Wikiwhatever summer intern project (AGAIN) since the first bunch had a brave crack at it but didn't really hit the target.
