• 03:0403:04, 11 April 2015 diff hist +22 Pronunciation of English ⟨a⟩ added one negative example to clarify the meaning of "non-prevocalic r"
• 02:5902:59, 11 April 2015 diff hist +24 Vowel length saying that vowel length "may or may not be phonological" is misleading; it sounds like you're talking about allophony between long and short vowels, like in American English (based on voicing of following consonant)

6 April 2015

• 21:4321:43, 6 April 2015 diff hist −12 Pronunciation of English ⟨a⟩ again, specifying that the consonant that a vowel precedes is "post-vocalic" is completely redundant

• 21:4121:41, 6 April 2015 diff hist +38 Pronunciation of English ⟨a⟩ "non-prevocalic" is used elsewhere in the article. It's a bit long, but it's the clearest term for contrasting with intervocalic r.
• 21:3821:38, 6 April 2015 diff hist +6 Pronunciation of English ⟨a⟩ "postvocalic r" is a terrible term for this environment. If you need to distinguish it from intervocalic r, please find a less ambiguous term.
• 21:3121:31, 6 April 2015 diff hist −12 Pronunciation of English ⟨a⟩ if we specify that a-lengthening affected /a/ preceding /r/, then it's tautological to also specify that the r is "post-vocalic".

• 07:5907:59, 14 November 2014 diff hist +134 Japanese phonology "/z/ is pronounced [dz] in pausa" is a really imprecise way of describing the environment. It sounds like you mean "by itself", but of course it always has to be followed by a vowel, so why not just describe the actual context? other misc edits
