Help[Facts] Re: Correcting Pronounciations
in reply to a message by Mar
Thanks for the info. Is there anything that has to be for that process to start, or is adding the pronunciation enough?
(Anyway in the case I attempted to correct, the pronunciation given is definitely incorrect, the name being a very region/one-country specific non-English name and the given pronunciation changes the gender of the name entirely). I believe someone else has mentioned this before me in the comments as well, but I'm not sure if they tried to add a pronunciation as well)

You can call Mike's attention to it by emailing him (mike@behindthename.com), or by PM'ing him (http://www.behindthename.com/privatemessages/compose.php?user=1). He's the one who maintains the database, and he does updates fairly frequently but not on a specific schedule. It can't hurt if you include any outside references for the information you want changed (books, websites, etc that show or discuss the pronunciation).
