Abstract
A computing device hosting a server identifies one or more potential typographical errors in a work using an initial reference. The computing device sends data indicative of the presence of the potential typographical errors to users. The computing device collects feedback for the work from the users. The feedback for the work indicates whether the potential typographical errors are author-intended strings. The computing device combines the user feedback for the work with user feedback for other works and sorts the combined user feedback based on one or more selected parameters. The computing device determines, based on the sorted user feedback, that one or more of the potential typographical errors includes an acceptable string and updates the initial reference to include the acceptable string.
