User:Scalene/proofers

Introduction
The purpose of the Wiki-proofers is to, essentially, cut down on the number of pages marked for cleanup, while still teaching others the "Way Of The Wiki." However, the wiki-proofers are different to the members of Cleanup, as rather than cleanup incorrect articles, they point out mistakes the article's author has made, and leave it to the author to correct.

People who are unsure of the page they have created would simply submit the page, and one of the wiki-proofers would examine the page. However, rather than cleanup, Wiki-proofers would simply discuss in the "Talk" page what needed to be fixed so the page was wikified, and explain how. However, they would not fix it for the author, allowing the author to gain experience in wikifying so the amount of non-wikified articles is lessened. Also, any spell checks or grammar issues are bolded, so the author can fix them.

Mission Statement
'To assist, not to correct.'. Since people could become lazy and simply submit pages all the time, the mission statement simply says that wiki-proofers point out mistakes, but do not correct them. This means tha tin addition to wikifying the article, the author learns how to write in the correct manner, as well.
