===Commons semi-copy===
 
On '''Wiki-Commons''' there is a similar template. Comments in code here (at English wiki) ask for carefully overdoing the edits on both sides. Still there are differences (e.g., a IPA-symbol at Commons is by image, here it is by font), which make the task to synchronize them undoable for one editor. Which is a bad thing. This all originated in 2005 or so, so maybe wikimedia etc are more helpful now.
 
(Personal note: I did not restrain from improving here on the English wiki: no bothering about Commons. Later on, when the edits are done, someone might take a look at the synchronization/copying at Commons. For now, we want the best Vowels-table at en., without compromising.).

Usage

As a bare table (chart): {{IPA vowel chart}}.
For navigation, this chart is transcluded into navbox: {{IPA navigation}}

Positioning

By default the template is floating to the right side of the page (float:right;). Text will run left of the template, and there is no {{clear}} so it might overlap a next section. Optionally, the float can be left by using

  • {{IPA vowel chart|float=left}}.

To force an align-placement, use:

  • <div align=center>{{IPA vowel chart|float=none}}</div>.

Color scheme

The table uses a color scheme that is used on more phonetic IPA boxes. Help:Using colors describes how the English Wikipedia uses a set of four related colors, based on a single color ([hue]]) e.g. green, are used on the wiki Main Page: headers, 2nd rank headers, borders and background. For another basic color, say blue, a corresponding set can be generated.
For this template, the colors are:

Hue Saturation 4% / Brightness 100%

main background
Saturation 10% / Brightness 100%

2nd header, accent colour
Saturation 15% / Brightness 95%
main border
header background
Saturation 15% / Brightness 75%

header border only
Hue: 60 #FFFFF5 #FFFFE6 #F2F2CE #BFBFA3
