  • I pledge to remove typos and errors that are illiterate. Illiteracy is something that should not be on Wikipedia or any other website on the internet. By joining the Typo Team on Wikipedia, I will respect and be true to this pledge. I pledge to seek and find typos on many articles of Wikipedia. Errors on Wikipedia won't be crossed out, errors will be removed from the article for good. By the pledge I have made, I will make sure that typos will be forbidden and illiteracy will be the very last thing on Wikipedia. I have made my agreements on behalf of the Typo Team, and I will leave an article when there is no more errors left on that page. By what I have said, I pledge to remove all errors and typos. JC Rules! (talk) 04:58, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • I pledge to attempt to fix as many typographical errors on Wikipedia as I find, and to look, not only for known common misspellings, but also for the rare ones that occur when someone believes to have pressed one key on a keyboard but has actually pressed another.

  • Typos make me go rawr (in a bad way), and I shall do away with any and all that I see! Unless I'm too tired or lazy. Also, I try to be careful when I type so as not to have typos of my own, and I don't see why others can't do the same. Especially on MSN. Spelling errors are not typos, but they, too, make me go rawr, and I shall do away with them as well. NoriMori (ノリモリ) 17:34, 19 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • ... my message to the generic typo: "He tasks me! He tasks me, and I shall have him! I'll chase him round the Moons of Nibia, and round the Antares Maelstrom, and round perdition's flames before I give him up!" (Courtesy of Khan, of course!)

  • I have declared war on "free reign" and on the adverbial use of "everyday". I will make every effort to seek them out and eliminate them or, if they're quoted accurately, to brand them with scornful "sic" labels. --Ammodramus (talk) 16:28, 4 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

edit
  • I pledge to help correct texts, especially spelling and grammar, without being too pedantic about the latter. Segilla (talk) 15:59, 28 December 2009
  • When I am in that scary world which is the web outside Wikipedia, when I see a typo I find my mouse scurrying of its own accord to the top of the page trying to find an "edit" tab. Curiously when I am in Wikipedia, and I see typos, I think: is there anything serious which needs done to this page - like, say, a speedy delete tag? If there is not, I leave it to someone else to fix the tyops. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 01:27, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm glad to join in the hunt to find typos throughout Wikipedia. Along with the Random Article button I pledge to search Wikipedia and fix mistakes when I find them. KyleM15 (talk) 21:58, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I will actively seek out and correct typos in order that I may help bring about that glorious day when there are no typos on Wikipedia. On that fine day, the rivers will run with chocolate and gold will rain down from the Heavens. CalumCook234 (talk) 21:03, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • I always correct typos as I encounter them in wiki articles. I guess it makes sense to pledge that I will continue to do so in the future. Go grammar! Consider me onboard. Ztheday (talk) 19:41, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • I hereby pledge to destroy typos at first sight with accuracy. Under no circumstances will I rest, until all typos on Wikipedia have been eliminated. leujohn 08:30, 14 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I pledge to correct typos, at first sight. SPBLU (talk) 21:37, 8 June 2008
  • I pledge to ruthlessly correct every grammatical error, spelling error, etc. that I come across in my wanderings. I will also make a great effort to rephrase sentences that I feel can sound more professional. IceUnshattered (talk) 00:00, 8 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Although I've been correcting typos, I pledge to continue correcting typos as I notice them upon first glance. Byankno1 (talk) 01:23, 26 April 2008
  • I pledge to welcome other users to correct my anticipated typos and spelling mistakes, and I pledge to correct typing errors (and grammar!) using Google as a spell checker even when I'm in a hurry to do something else because I am a pedantic. Londonsista (talk) 04:28, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I'll fight a one-editor campaign against "is been", correcting it variously to "is being", "has been", plain "is", or whatever seems appropriate, ditto "was been", "should of", "could of", "would of". And will continue to correct typos I fall over, anywhere on WikiPedia. PamD (talk) 13:05, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

1 January 2007 – 31 December 2007

edit
  • I pledge to correct any spelling errors I find during the time I am on Wikipedia. One tool I use is Microsoft Outlook. I have a page in my drafts folder that I cut and paste to correct errors. CrohnieGalTalk 13:39, 27 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Except when sounded as "ay", as in neighbor or weigh, of course. 208.200.176.2 17:05, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Unless you're just weird. Admiral Memo (talk) 02:09, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • I pledge to check for errors anytime I am editing a page. Doenut1793 5:33 am, 16 July 2007, Monday (7 years, 8 months, 23 days ago) (UTC+1)
  • I'll see what I can do. Ahahahaha. Okay, I pledge to use Mozilla Firefox to correct any spelling errors I come across. Furthermore, I will attempt to correct the spelling on 10 pages per day. Okay, maybe not. 5 a day. That I can be certain to do daily. BlueCanary9999 00:35, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I will correct any typos I come across in my normal browsing, as well as try to keep an eye out for consistency of usage (color/colour) in an article. Furthermore, I will check the Common misspelling list from time to time. gorffy 05:21, 25 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Every few weeks I fix /Ju(i)?l(l)?(i)?ard/. I ended up creating the article at Julliard, when I realized how often they really mean Editions Julliard. I also change Chumash to Humash, though if an article on a town in California means the Jewish sense, I may have missed it. These two tasks straddle the line between disambiguation and spelling, and I am more of a disambiguation faerie, but I fix a lot of spelling too. I just did a few dozen of Brittanica, but I won't make a habit of that. I'm just committing to Juilliard and Humash. — Randall Bart 23:49, 27 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • I will use my skills and intuition in correcting every typo I come across when looking for such things. If I am unsure, I will use the spellcheck on my computer, and the web to compare with relevant websites. Coryma (Talk)
  • I will correct any typo I come across on Wikipedia, using the spell-check in Firefox and by searching on Google for mistakes. I will pay special attention to British vs American consistency in articles. Laerwen 05:19, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1 January 2006 – 31 December 2006

edit
  • I will be looking for duplicates like "the the" and "that that".
  • Umm.. "that that" is not necessarily wrong. The reason I dislike this car, is that that other car was better. Not the best example of a sentence, yes, but it is still grammatically correct :) EuroSong talk 00:20, 30 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]
That surely is a disasterous typo Rbarreira 12:24, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Every time I get bored, I'll continue from where I left off in the list of common misspellings. Right now, I'm only on the letter 'a', so by the time I get back around to 'a' in about 100 years, it'll be good to go again. tv316 15:50, 20 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • I used to get confused as to the correct spelling of "forty", so it's on my regular hit list. So is "valuable", and I'll be adding a new word to the list every week or two. --Estarriol 17:38, 6 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

1 January 2005 – 31 December 2005

edit
JoeBot is now doing this with AutoWikiBrowser so I'll bow out, and move my efforts over to Wikipedia:WikiProject Disambiguation.
