[edit] Welcome and can you help?

Hi Rick69p and welcome to Wikipedia:WikiProject Australian places. A few of us are working on the Wagga Wagga, New South Wales article at the moment to get it up to Good article standard. I would like to include an IPA pronunciation for Wagga Wagga in the article and I note that on your user page that you understand the IPA alphabet. Any help you could give would be much appreciated. -- Mattinbgn/ talk 11:09, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi Mattinbgn. As you can see I'm kind of new at this. Actually I'm glad you asked me about the IPA because it led me to check IPA on here and I discovered that what I'm familiar with is the NATO phonetic alphabet (which according to the International Phonetic Alphabet article is informally called the International Phonetic Alphabet!) and not the IPA itself. To be honest I always believed it to be a truely International system and not one restricted to the North Atlantic, as the term NATO would suggest. Learn something new every day, huh? So unfortunately I'm probably not familiar with what you're trying to find out or I would have told you Wagga Wagga is Wiskey-Alpha-Golf-Golf-Alpha Wiskey-Alpha-Golf-Golf-Alpha, something you most likely wouldn't need me to tell you. So now I'm going to remove that IPA user box from my page, thank you for indirectly informing me of my error and apologise for being unable to help. (And walk away with a red face!) -- Rick69p 13:44, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
Thanks anyway. Cheers, Mattinbgn/ talk 20:09, 14 May 2007 (UTC)
