Faar added the Old Shame example to Trivia.Summoning Salt with a number of grammar errors. I fixed the example and sent a notifier.
Today, they edited the example again, in the process making a mistake they also made when first adding it ("...wouldn't became such an icon..." instead of "wouldn't have become such an icon..."). I sent another notifier, making it clearer what they did wrong, but it is concerning that they made the same mistake twice, even after being corrected.
A quick look at their history reveals that there are grammar errors in most of their edits. Thankfully, these edits are not very frequent and got corrected quickly afterwards. But this is a concerning trend, since it creates more problems for others to fix.
