Sorry about that, I'll let the correct user know. --Ben41 23:04, 31 August 2011 (CDT)
Spelling corrections
Proofreading is fine and good, just be wary of relying on a spellchecker too much for jargon and technical language. MS Spellcheck doesn't know "forend" is a correct spelling for part of a gun, for example, and will switch it to "fore-end" which is wrong. Evil Tim 19:31, 20 September 2011 (CDT)
- Same with "reticle." Reticule is actually a less common version, but for some reason you won't find a spellchecker that knows "reticle." Evil Tim 07:02, 23 November 2011 (CST)
- A minor note; much as it's irrational, fixing people's spellings on talk pages can rub some users the wrong way and isn't really a good idea. Evil Tim 22:27, 6 December 2011 (CST)
- Same thoughts I had. About spell-checking the talk page being a bad idea, that is. --Masterius 04:58, 7 December 2011 (CST)
- Sorry, I will try to be more judicious with my spelling corrections. I don't want to step on any toes.
Arcadia of My Youth corrections
It's spelled "Messerschmitt", not "Messerschmidt", regardless of what the spellchecker tells you. Please make sure that when you change the name of something that you're not screwing it up, especially when whoever made the page went through the trouble of researching such things.--PistolJunkie 14:39, 13 December 2011 (CST)
