What happens to the recordings?
LinguaLibre stores data about locutors and the recordings, but the actual recordings are stored on Wikimedia Commons. As WikiCommons is a Wikimedia Foundation project, the recordings can be easily and freely reused by contributors to illustrate articles on Wikipedias, Wiktionaries and others. To ensure resiliency, the files on Wikimedia Commons are replicated in multiple datacenters around the world (links to learn more?), and we also periodically copy and compile the recordings into datasets. These datasets are made available to everyone and are notably used by scientists and developers working on natural language processing, e.g. automatic speech recognition software.
