Wikipedia IPA Display Fix

Submitted by Frenzie on Thu, 12/03/2009 - 15:18

Wikipedia's default style for IPA texts doesn't specify a font that contains all (or most) of the IPA range of characters, which makes it look somewhat ugly. This style fixes that without affecting anything else.

Or just paste .IPA{font-family:"DejaVu Sans", "Lucida Grande", "Arial Unicode MS" !important} into your own Wikipedia stylesheet, if you have one.

Installation Instructions:

Once downloaded to your computer a User CSS file can be activated for all sites, by going to preferences->advanced->style options and changing "my stylesheet" to the one you just downloaded.

Site specific CSS files can be activated through site preferences->display and changing "my stylesheet" there.

User CSS files can be kept anywhere on your computer but, to keep things neat, it is advisable to create a folder for them.

Tested with Opera version(s):

10.10
