We had an expert from a center for for "promoting Easy to read text" to
look into some of our introduction text for some articles on on sv:wp.
She reacted strongly in us in some cases having phonetic text in
parenthesis in the first sentence, explaining that people unused of
reading reads on word at a time, and then just gets stuck on these
strange part (and will not be able to read on)
I also finds it seem to be common pratice on all versions, se for
example http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pope_John_Paul_II
are there other local initiatives to make our texts more easily read? Or
where could it be appropriate to discuss if phonetic texts should not
generally be transferred to the infoboxes?
