Quick question: I often see articles with typos in the headlines. While typos inside posts aren't a big deal, having typos on the forum "front page" (i.e. in the headlines) can give visitors a poor impression (especially ones like "your" for "you're", "loose" for "lose", "missle" for "missile", etc.).
Do the moderators want to be alerted to headline typos so that they can be fixed? And if so, what's the proper channel for doing so (abuse button, freepmail, etc.)?
Let us know via an abuse report, we see them faster. But, give us a few minutes before you report typos. We'll likely see them and correct them on our own.
Thanks
Do the moderators want to be alerted to headline typos so that they can be fixed? And if so, what's the proper channel for doing so (abuse button, freepmail, etc.)?Yes, please. The best channel is the abuse button, for that and similar items requiring mod attention, even when (as in your example) no abuse is involved.
Usually we'll preserve headline typos, if they were in the original. SheLion may recall a rare exception.
