This is exactly what I said I might be useful for :). I Have pretty good proof-reading skills, and this is a good thing to do while I'm busy and only get small amounts of free-time.

Nick Brasil has said he "accepts this job", but I'm assuming it's something all editors can do?

But if I'm not mistaken, you need to be interested in the job also.

OK, well I am interested in doing this. I don't know about reading "all the articles posted on the DriverWiki" once it starts to get bigger, but I am happy to help with doing this.

Yes this is something everyone can do, but it's good to have a list of people who are interested. Then if the DriverWiki does get very large we can split the english editors up into categories.

For example; two might work in Driver: Parallel Lines section and one might work in the Driver section. But at the moment the DriverWiki is very small and managable so you can all read through the entire wiki.

Some links editors like yourselves will be interested in checking out would include:

http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... entchanges
This displays recent changes that have been made to the wiki, this is a great way to find any new modifications which have been made to the wiki.

If you have already checked the page for errors and only want to check the differences press the "dif" button and it'll show you any differences that have been made in red.

To fix up any errors press the "edit" button.
Make sure your logged in otherwise you won't be able to make any modifications.


http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... l:Allpages
If your starting out, and want to check all the pages. They all be listed on the link I posted above.

Please note, the link above only shows you pages in the "main" namespace. There is also:

"Driver" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=100

"Driver 2" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=120

"Driver 3" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=140

"Driver: Parallel Lines" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=160

"Driver: 76" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=500

"Driver: Working Title" namespace
namespace not avaliable yet

"Driver: Vegas" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=800

"Driver: LA Undercover" namespace
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... espace=810

All these namespaces can be selected in the list on the Special:AllPages page.

If you have any comments or questions feel free to ask!
Thanks for your time.

Being an english editor only allows you to fix up any spelling or grammical errors. Not to add information to the wiki. If you have an idea for a project you'd like to complete feel free to post that in the Project Ideas! thread.

I just checked the recent changes page.
http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... entchanges

and noticed Lseven7 has gone ahead and made an amazing edit.
Looks pretty professional too :wink: Wished my english was that good.

Check out the differences he made, using the differences feature on this page

http://www.driverwiki.com/index.php?tit ... 3&rcid=429

Good Work, Lseven7 :D

Hopefully it'll also give other editors ideas on improving content written within the wiki 8) .
