Uziel can you proofread tale 13 (and then add yourself as proofreader on the Discussion tab there) or else edit one of the other stories (we have drafts but they need careful editing)? Chazaq uvaruch! Nissimnanach (talk) 12:07, 10 October 2011 (UTC)Nissimnanach
Would this be of interest?
Identifying regexp patterns for possible typos might be something worth examining, especially if you were able to accept potential new patterns based on what changes users made based on what you had already identified, possibly with some degree of machine learning involved :) ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 15:29, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
- ShakespeareFan00, thanks. I think your list is very prone to false positives. Like son without n in the end can be sob. What I do is: make a list of all possible variations of popular words, remove real words from that list and then search every word of the scanned text in the list. We fixed over 14000 typos in Hebrew Wikipedia and some hundreds on English Wikipedia. Wikisource is a bad place for fixing typos since many typos appear so in source and shouldn't be fixed. You can join on w:Wikipedia:Correct typos in one click. Thanks. Uziel302 (talk) 15:58, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
