[edit] Pronunciation

Perhaps a pronunciation guide using the International Phonetic Alphabet would be more helpful than this, apparently North American, attempt. mat_x 07:59, 30 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I agree. From the United State's textbooks I have read, I gather this kind of patronising pronunciation guide for any word over two syllables long is the norm.
A lot of French listeners heard it like Pompidou ;-) Ericd 21:41, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Repetition

It seems like the first section and the second section of this article are saying the same thing. Much of what is in the first is repeated in the second. Perhaps this could be cleaned up? -—Preceding unsigned comment added by Coronawithlime (talk • contribs) 19 June 2006

[edit] epismetology

Google results show fewer than 25 hits from [1]. I don't have access to the recording, but could this instead be epistemology? --Robertkeller 20:59, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] merge with The Joker (song)?

Seems to me that most of this article goes back to the song (whose article, strange enough, is shorter). Even the pop culture section could be merged. I'll wait a few days for anyone who disagrees before I put in the appropriate tags. In the meantime, I'll put a similar note in the other talk page. Roehl Sybing 22:59, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Has this really been sitting here seven months? Anyway, I think the two articles are probably long enough to remain separate.  — The Storm Surfer 11:55, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Definition?

Is it too much to ask for somebody to attempt to define this word?

  • Apparently, yes. Steve Miller never chose to do it, and Vernon Green never actually used it in its present form. Its meaning, however, has little to do with its usage as referenced in this article. (If you're desperate, though, try [[2]] definition.)Deltopia 13:40, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
