 | This page documents an English Wikipedia editing guideline. Editors should generally follow it, though exceptions may apply. Substantive edits to this page should reflect consensus. When in doubt, discuss first on the talk page. |
Spellchecking software can be helpful when copyediting Wikipedia articles. This page explains how to use it well and avoid conflicts with other editors.
General advice:
- Be sure to use the spelling for the correct dialect of a language (e.g., American English vs. British English).
- No spellchecker is completely accurate.
- Be extremely careful when editing pages written in languages in which you are not fluent.
- Grammar-checking tools can introduce more errors than they appear to fix.
- You are responsible for all spelling or grammar changes you make, even if the corrections were suggested by an error-checking tool.
