[edit] {{Sound of the day}} (or week or whatever) box
A possible template for a sound of the x box:
| Sound of the day |
 |
| Toque de Angola (ogg, 17 seconds, 174KB) |
| An unaccompanied berimbau playing a Capoeira Angola rhythm.

Feel free to edit the version above to discuss — it makes it easier than having eight different possibilities in the same section. One thing that would be very good is if the image could be clickable to hear the sound, but I don't know if there any way to do that with the current code. Also, it would be nice to have a dedicated image, instead of the generic speaker icon; I'd be happy to make one if anyone has any ideas on what would be nice. — Asbestos | Talk (RFC) 14:55, 11 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Source for sound candidates
The commons:Commons:Media_of_the_day page might be a good list to go through for possible 'featurable' sounds. All are available under a public license and have already undergone some vetting in regards to quality. --CBD 22:06, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Featured content page
Featured sounds have been added to the WP:FC page - which is linked from the Main page and the navigation bar which is always displayed. Discussion of where/how to display them, standard colors for the project, and other issues can be found here. --CBD 19:37, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
