Forum:Spell Check

Spell Check
Im a modest wiki editor, mostly categorizing files and articles, but no matter what every page i come across has some sort of spelling eeror :) I've been trying to embed a spell check on a wiki page but being a novice its beyond me.


 * this is the code:

http://www.jspell.com/public-spell-checker.html
 * this is where i found it.

For now i just edit & copy everything on the page and run it through the spell checker.

Although i prefer the old style editor (being someone who wiki edits in Microsoft notepad, I'm old school), it might be a better idea to add it to the new editor it might get me to use it. Or add a new button, just like the other ones that have been showing up: Make a map, add a video.

Let me know what the community thinks

This is unrelated; but just so you know your topic Forum:Spell check didn't have to be recreated to be placed in the appropriate forum section: you could just edit the top line of it. -- Sixorish 21:37, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


 * I know it looks that way, but I wanted it to be a capital "C" in Check, not just fix the forum. So intead of moving it i made a new page, because it would have made a redirect page also... but thanks for the heads up.--My Name Is Tom 22:15, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Fixed, not I don't see why capitalization matters. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:18, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Do not disrupt this wiki in order to make a point. If this forum becomes the source of disruption, I'll be forced to lock it down. --Michaeldsuarez (Talk) (Deeds) 18:36, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

OK I Wont, cause i did. And you do what you have to. Im just tryin to have a discussion on the subject, but saying use another browser is negating the issue. Wikia is constantly trying to improve itself, and why not try and come up with some ways to do it.--My Name Is Tom 18:52, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Off topic: Moving was the best option as pages listed here appear because of the category in the template not because of their name.
 * Now topic: The biggest issue i see with any spell check is that of the language barriers, what if the error is done on purpose?, what if like other people i navigate a french wiki with preference set in spanish and i want to write in english to communicate or be it german if i knew some one knew german..., language is to personal even between wikis and wording could be wrong but accepted. for example in the dofus there is this word "perceptor" while the right word is "preceptor" but the game developers dont want to change it... imagine the load times for this to work properly and more in a multi language level... --
