Spelling Counts!!


Recommended Posts

Hi, gang!

 

I just happened to be looking at the tags attached in a build log here. The log features a Model Shipways kit, and as you probably know, there are hundreds of Model Shipways kits featured in build logs at MSW.

 

But . . .

 

This particular log featured a tag that said Model Shipway, not Model Shipways. See the difference? The correct spelling is Shipways (plural). You might think that this doesn't make much of a difference, but it does. A tag search only turns up hits that exactly match the spelling in the tag that is clicked. If a curious member clicked on the "Model Shipway" tag today, the search would yield only seven results. On the other hand, clicking a "Model Shipways" tag yields 716 results -- over one hundred times as many!

 

So please, when you add a tag, make sure it is spelled correctly. I fix the misspelled ones when I find them, but I don't always find them!

 

Cheers!
