Wikiortografia
Descrição do Projeto
editThe idea behind the Wikispelling project is that whenever an error is fixed in a wiki, and this error is likely to appear in other wikis, then that error should be fixed in the other wikis as well. I am thinking mostly about spelling errors: when a word is frequently misspelled in English, there are chances it is also misspelled by foreigners. This is especially true of proper nouns.
Other tasks can be performed on all wikis at the same time. I am not really sure where this project is going, but I needed a place to keep track of my own work, so here it is. If you have any ideas, feel free to contribute.

edit- Should user pages and talk pages be fixed?
I personally fix these pages as well because it reduces Google noise. Sam Hocevar 19:17, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- Some friends correct my user pages and I appliciate them. I don't think it should be corrected; other people don't welcome such corretion. Correction with a note on talk would be nice. --Aphaia 23:56, 18 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- I do, and I don't, depending on the Google noise. I agree with Aphaia, when corrected, we should leave a message on the User's talk page. On Talk pages, when amending something, we could have a standard commit message that says "reducing Google noise" for example ;-) . notafish }<';> 20:35, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- That would, of course, require the local version of Google noise. Aliter 17:52, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)

- Should pages on other W-s actually be changed, or should those speaking the language merely be warned? It might be a bit presumptious to assume we know the spelling of a word in a language we can't write. And making a fix, then write the summary in a foreign language, does indeed appear presumptious. Aliter 19:26, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Of course. but look at the word list:
- How can we avoid burdening small W-s with errors they discover? Aliter 19:26, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- How is this relevant to Wikispelling? Sam Hocevar 21:47, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- How can we avoid burdening small W-s with the need to check whether a fix is actualy a fault? Aliter 19:26, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- If unsure, just don’t fix it. Googling and/or looking at other articles in the same language also helps deciding whether the fix is OK. Sam Hocevar 21:47, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- How can we avoid alienating other editors by plastering project-advertising all over the summaries? Aliter 19:26, 30 Jan 2005 (UTC)
- Probably by not changing anything in what we are currently doing. It’s not as if we were doing thousands of edits a day. Sam Hocevar 21:47, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Is the spelling bot in active use on English Wiki pages? I used Google to find numerous instances of seperate and soluable. How do I request that a find-replace pair be added to the spell checker's list? seperate->separate soluable->soluble

Ripuarian (ksh
):
- This is not a unified language but a collection of dialects having in part several distinct spellings, some not even fixed, or following context related phonetic spelling rules. Foreign proper names may or may be not be 'imported' into a dialect, pronounciationwise + spellingwise. Both christian names and 'meaningful' surnames can occasionally be translated.
- If a foreign proper name is used literally + meant to be pronounced in its original foreign manner, it is most often enclosed in a
{{lang|xyz|foreign name}}

. Feel free to add ones, where missing.
Commit messages
editEmpty commit messages should be avoided as much as possible. Even minor edits should properly state what is being changed (spelling, grammar, punctuation, layout, ...).
The following (hopefully correct) table should help you add the proper commit message in various languages when correcting mistakes in other wikis.
For instance, if you are fixing spelling errors in a Norwegian wiki, avoid the following commit message:
- minor corrections (spelling) - please help with [[m:Wikispelling|Wikispelling]]!
but rather use:
- små korreksjoner (rettskrivning) - hjelp [[m:Wikispelling|Wikispelling]] !
or simply:
- rettskrivning - hjelp [[m:Wikispelling|Wikispelling]] !

Frequent mistakes
editBad links
editSome external links use redirection services such as tinyurl.com or minilien.com to shorten links. This serves no purpose and has a few drawbacks: it is impossible to know where the URL points to, and just adds a single point of failure in case the redirection service disappears.

Misspelling of proper nouns
editThe correct spelling is between parentheses. Be careful: most of these errors are in the English language. It is possible that the incorrect spelling listed here is in fact the correct spelling in a specific language. Do not blindly replace, double check first! Also, when you update a checked entry, move it at the bottom of the list.
