It's spelled "[http://www.messerschmitt-bf109.de/ Messerschmitt]", not "Messerschmidt", regardless of what the spellchecker tells you.

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)
