A new template, {{LinkNarrated}}, lets you code a link to an article that has a narration (by the same name, plus .mp3), like Fantastic Four ( listen). I wrote it and PuppyOnTheRadio fixed it.

Also, although Dexter got Category:Spoken articles working, we need a Front Page for narrations so you can see, more clearly than an alphabetical list, what's there and what you might like. The only typical way to find out about new narrated versions is on the award page for ANotM. Zim recently put a mainspace narration in {{RecentUnNewsAudio}} to hump it, but they aren't UnNews and don't belong there. Spıke ¬ 12:14 10-Sep-10

More recently, as documented on User talk:PuppyOnTheRadio, we tweaked this so that clicking on it would start the download and not just call up the info page; then I changed it to piggyback on top of Gert5's {{InlineMedia}} which you can see in use on two featured stories on the UnNews Front Page; and more recently tried to understand why it occasionally fails to find certain MP3s.

But don't everyone reply at once. Spıke ¬ 23:43 14-Sep-10
