Anyone know why the IPA symbols aren't displayed correctly? (Or are they? Not for me.) I'm talking about these: [hɔləˈʁøː] The symbols ɔ and ʁ should be bigger. Time Questions 11:29, 14 March 2009 (EDT)

What browser are you using? In Firefox, the symbols are bigger than in IE. -- Son of Suns (talk)
They look exactly the same for me in Firefox and IE. Except for the last one, which is too big in IE. Time Questions 12:13, 14 March 2009 (EDT)
Strange...I'm not sure why they are changing differently... -- Son of Suns (talk)

Do either of these look right? [hɔləˈʁøː] [hɔləˈʁøː] Not understanding the IPA myself, I've just copied the relevent formatting info from Wikipedia... - 2257(Talk) 02:19, 7 April 2009 (EDT)

The symbols in the second one look consistent, but yeah, it's a different font. I guess the font of our wiki doesn't include those symbols? Time Questions 02:24, 7 April 2009 (EDT)
Yeah, our default font is Verdana, which contains only a few symbols. I guess it falls back on times new roman for the symbols that don't exist in Verdana, creating the inconsistent look. - 2257(Talk) 02:32, 7 April 2009 (EDT)

Useless page?

Why do we have an article talking about some exclamation people make? Sure, it's a running gag, but does the term by itself play any major plot role (i.e. anyone who says this will turn into a wheel of cheese)? There is a song with it in the title, but it isn't directly the word causing it, so... I think this article is useless. Icon showing how many lives Mario has left. From Super Mario 64 DS.

It's the universe scenario all over again: word naturally common in German produced comics gets article on some ham-fisted basis that there's a need for deeper analysis or something. I'm reminded of SFWikia, back when I had to wipe an article on Dan's "Yahoo!" catchphrase. ExdeathIcon.png Lord G. matters. ExdeathIcon.png 02:32, 10 February 2014 (EST)
