[edit] Spelling
As per the WP:MOS, specifically addressing retaining the existing variety, I have twice reverted edits changing the originator's spelling of fertilizer to fertiliser. I have also twice reverted the introduction of the misspelled "hydraseeding" as an alternative to the correctly spelled "hydroseeding". I'm assuming coincidence for now but documenting just in case. ~ hydnjo talk 03:53, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Evidence of original spelling preference
This article was started [1] by hydnjo on 6 May 2005 . This posting is intended to document this article's genesis as it seems to be under deliberate and persistent vandalism as partially documented in the Talk:Hydroseeding#Spelling section above. The next instance of vandalism will be followed by an appeal at WP:VIP for appropriate action. This notice is being posted here because the offender is apparently utilizing a dynamic IP with no active talk page. See diffs [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] for evidence of the described behavior. Each instance of vandalism was by a first and only. Hmmm... ~ hydnjo talk 02:23, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Regarding a non-word
Additionally, this series of edits seems intent on introducing the misspelled variant "hydraseeding" rather than the properly spelled "hydroseeding". Although I can find some reason for arguing the alternative "fertilising" spelling rather than the originator's preference "fertilizing", I see no argument at all for the introduction of a made-up word such as "hydraseeding.
This whole thing seems to me a bit of bullcrap within such an obscure encyclopedia article and it seems to me to have attracted an undue vandalistic effort. This is indeed puzzling. Hmmm... ~ hydnjo talk 05:10, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] HydrAseeding - not a misspelling
I've been working in the civil engineering industry for sometime now in both North America and Europe, hydAseeding is found in project specifications from time to time as is not a misspelling - Just thought you might want to know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.156.154.147 (talk • contribs)
