[edit] Hello!

Welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you are very quickly making spelling corrections using javascript within your monobook.js. Many spelling mistakes are introduced, so it's great that you want to help fix them.

I noticed as well that you made some spelling corrections to vandalism (or joke edits) after they had been applied to the page. See here: [1] and here: [2]

These were more difficult to catch as the gut reaction of people who patrol recent page changes is to ignore recent changes that only correct spelling, such as yours. It would be preferable if you would please remove any joke edits or vandalism you see rather than correcting the spelling of joke edits. If you are not sure whether an edit is vandalism or not, perhaps just leave it (i.e. leave it with the spelling error.)

thank you! --guyzero | talk 02:36, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Additionally, be very careful not to correct misspellings that may appear in links as you did here: [3]. regards, --guyzero | talk 02:39, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
