Local pronuciation

Adding a local pronunciation rendered as "(Swabian: Esslenga am Neckor)" doesn't make sense - for a number of reasons:

the reference given is Alemanian wikipedia. "Alemannisch" German is a continuum of related dialects with widely varying pronunciations - and without any established and authoriative standard.
locals will not add the "am Neckar" to the name of the city, as this is a purely administrative suffix.
locals will not pronounce the name of the river as "Neckor" but rather like "Neggr" (the final vowel is dropped) and "am", after a word ending in "a", as "m".
finally, and most importantly, German phonetic approximations of the actual local pronunciation do not work in English wikipedia. Either, international phonetic transcription should be used - or an actual recording inserted. Albrecht Conz (talk) 05:53, 17 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
