Did you try sending the troper a grammar notifier? Just wondering.

No I didn't, because sometimes I forget about notifiers entirely. I probably should've considering the volume of edits they made on the 12th alone - which I saw because I follow basically every Metroid page.

At the very least, having an ATT would be good for directly pointing to examples of their mistakes.

I did send one after reading your reply, though, along with a link here.

My computer was very unstable at the time I made the edits, so some letters were registered wrongly... That's what happened

Bumping this one because another edit they did on YMMV.Metroid Other M today hacksawed out part of an entry without trying to format it properly or make it cleanly flow.

Maybe message them about it?

Yes, PMs should be a first resort before reporting things to the mods.

Sorry about that - I thought that since it was a similar problem to the OP, continuing the thread would be justifiable (and sending messages isn't exactly my strong suit).

In any case, I've DMed them about this thread bump and their edit.

My mistake I'll amend the edits to make them better when I have time.
