Talk:Obsolete and nonstandard symbols in the International Phonetic Alphabet

message: k* etc. is standard IPA. L used it in its standard sense of don't-have-a-symbol-for-this. Likewise,  follows a common pattern of extension of the IPA, such as  for extra-long a,  for extra stress (both of which are mentioned explicitly by the IPA) and  for extra-rhotic a. We don't list all IPA symbols which have ever been superscripted, such as ts, as nonstandard, so I'm removing k* and  from the list. kwami (talk) 17:29, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Also the digraphs for affricatives  (maybe also the digraphs ?) belong here. Dan ☺ 16:29, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: You mean the ligatures. The digraphs (combinations of two letters) are still current. +Angr 16:58, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you for answering Dan so helpfully. We all know, that's why wikipedia is so great. -DePiep (talk) 22:30, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Uhm, at first I wrote "ligatures", but then I saw that their Unicode names use "digraph" (e.g. here). I've seen  in articles here be replaced with  with ed sums saying the first were obsolete. Was that sarcasm back there? Dan ☺ 00:39, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it was sarcastic, aimed at Angr clearly ('answering'). Fact: Angr did not answer your question. Which makes h/h post useless. Why did h/s not spend (less) time improving the article, instead of doing smart-talk here? -DePiep (talk) 00:49, 30 July 2010 (UTC)

text: And Dan, I do not know enough about IPA & so to react. I do know that there are are big areas & topics of discussion, so the IPA-profession clearly is not converging for a while. -DePiep (talk) 00:49, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Dan didn't ask a question, he stated a fact, but got his terminology wrong. (I didn't realize that Unicode also gets its terminology wrong.) +Angr 08:32, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Fair enough, Angr. I stroked. -DePiep (talk) 22:24, 31 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm happy we're all friends again , so: the ligatures are obsolete, so they belong on the page, right? Dan ☺ 01:37, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, at least the ones for the affricates. I don't know enough about the extended IPA for disordered speech to know if  are also deprecated, but since they aren't affricates, I doubt it. +Angr 05:56, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Aren't these already in the (first) table, second row from below? -DePiep (talk) 06:37, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes. I was blind. Dan ☺ 22:06, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
