On Wikipedia, respelling is most commonly used to help clarify the pronunciation of a name or topic in the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section|lead section]] or introductory paragraph of an article. Per the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Pronunciation|Manual of Style]], respelling may only follow and augment a corresponding [[International Phonetic Alphabet]] template (e.g., {{tl|IPAc-en}}) and may never be used in place of one. The template provides a link to a key so that readers may easily discover how to pronounce an easily mispronounced or difficult-to-pronounce word. For example: | On Wikipedia, respelling is most commonly used to help clarify the pronunciation of a name or topic in the [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section|lead section]] or introductory paragraph of an article.

Any argument containing an underscore or beginning or ending with a hyphen will not generate adjoining hyphens and will instead turn the underscore into a space, allowing for denoting word boundaries, alternate pronunciations, and affix ellipses.
