Wikispeech

Wikispeech is a MediaWiki extension which provides text-to-speech functionality allowing a page to be read aloud to the user.

It uses the Speechoid service to synthesize audio from the text on MediaWiki pages.

For more information about the background to the project, check out the Wikispeech page on Meta.
