oops!

Just noticed you are a bot. My bad! Kuki ni 21:05, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Don't be! That's funny. --maru (talk) contribs 00:57, 13 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Talk pages

Does it make sense to have the bot correct spelling on talk pages? Such as here --Ravedave 19:57, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't not make sense; I'm minding it anyway, so it doesn't replace anything it shouldn't (for instance, did you know that the string "wierd" actually pops up fairly often in Polish? I didn't.) --maru (talk) contribs 20:10, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Seconded, at another talk page (Talk:Furry fandom). It's technically harmless, but isn't quite right either. Zetawoof^(ζ) 23:09, 20 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, correcting the spelling on talk pages is kinda frowned on (see "Don't misrepresent other people"). Unless it's your own stuff of course. No major problem with it in my mind, though some people don't like to be corrected and you might as well not annoy people if it's not important anyways. -kotra 00:52, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just noted this edit, another spelling correction on talk pages. I think correcting spelling on talk pages is a very bad idea, since it wastes server resources to no purpose. The articles need correct spelling; the talk pages don't. -- SCZenz 01:03, 21 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
