I found and corrected 19 separate instances of "seperate" in the Wikipedia
today.
All of these are currently in Wikipedia articles. I could use a little
help.

Welcome to the Wikipedia Gardening club, Ed. We may not be as sexy as the Militia but there's always plenty weeding to keep us busy!
I must admit that I haven't checked out "separate" for a while but there are always plenty of similar "weeds" to find. "suprising" and "comittee" to name but two. I like Magnus's idea for Yet Another Special Page working off Wikipedia:Typos though. Automated finding isn't the complete answer but it would be a very useful tool.
Cheers
