Adopt-a-Typo

Hello! You have received this message because it is believed that you might be interested in adopting a typo for your very own.

What is adopt-a-typo?

Adopt-a-typo is an effort to harness a movement that already exists in Wikipedia. Individual users already pick typos that particularly irritate them, and search for them in the Wikipedia articles. Adopt-a-typo is intended to do three things:

• Add social credit to this practice, so that users feel enticed to join and adopt.
• Catalog the growth of the adopt a typo movement, so that there is a list of ALL adopted typos.
• Enable those who want to adopt a typo to do so quickly and easily.

Why do you want to start this new group, instead of joining one of these existing groups?

I, and probably you, have joined several groups that pursue the same goal through different means, but we at Adopt-a-Typo believe this proposal harnesses the unique power that Wikipedia has with its mass conglomerate of editors.
