This sounds like a great idea (something akin to PGDP's WordCheck tool
<http://www.pgdp.net/wiki/WordCheck>?) But I wonder if implementing it as a
Gadget would be easier? That way, the user is already logged in, and can
access all the normal APIs etc.
The word lists (both good and bad?) could be saved as subpages of the Index
page. Could probably make sense to have site-wide word lists too, for all
the really common ones.
Do you have an idea of the interface for correcting words (the right-click
drop down list)?
This could be really useful for all language Wikisources I think!

Gergo Tisza,
Recently, we added more then 2000 books to Tamil WikiSource using
Google OCR with OCR4WikiSource
https://github.com/tshrinivasan/OCR4wikisource
Most of the books have 30-40% spell errors. To fix them, editing the
pages manually is not easy.
I am thinking of a browser plugin with the following workflow.
1. user logins to tamil wikisource
2. reads a wiki page for any book
3. Finds a word with spelling error
4. double clicks it
5. Inline textbox opens there
6. Writes correct word and click ok button
7. The change is saved automatically in background
8. The old word and new word are sent to remote server and stored
9. Mass find and replace for the stored wrong,correct words are
executed periodically
With this design plan, hope users can easily contribute to fix the spell
errors.
Hope there may be even better solutions. Share your thoughts on this.
Now, I am in point 1.
Cant find any javascript code login to wikipedia without getting
No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present
error.
The CORS link is not useful for beginner.
Example code in javascript to login to wikipedia will be much helpful.
Moriel Schottlender,
Your solution is fine.
Please share the code so that I can extend from there.
Thanks.
