Forrest,
Yes, that's certainly true, and of course I agree it's a good idea to fix
those scanning and OCR (optical character recognition) goofs. "Editing" normally
refers to rearranging and changing text. What you're suggesting is
"proofreading for typos".
As mentioned, let's each pick some items that seem worthy of being on the web
site.
