Grants talk:IEG/Enhance Proofreading for Dutch
Add topicLanguageTool
[edit]@TaalTik: It sounds like LanguageTool is an existing tool on Dutch Wikipedia. Can you provide some more information on it such as links to the code or documentation? Is it already widely used? whym (talk) 10:57, 19 September 2014 (UTC)
- One assumes that https://www.languagetool.org/ is meant. Its one of the most well known/widely used of the open source grammar checkers. Bawolff (talk) 17:43, 26 September 2014 (UTC)
- I presumed that the tool was going to be a gadget on MediaWiki, which could be wrong in light of Bawolff's comment above. Is it going to be a web service on Tools Labs [1]? If so, how can we help a wide range of users of Wikipedia (and other Wikimedia projects) will find and use it? whym (talk) 13:43, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
- It is already a tool on Wikipedia: https://tools.wmflabs.org/languagetool/?lang=nl , but it could be incorporated even more, like auto proofreading at a submit. But that is not part of my proposal; the proposal is all about making LanguageTool and Wikipedia more compliant, like rules not conflicting with Wikipedia markup, a more complete dictionary, especially filled with Wikipedia words (proper names) and no false alarms from those names.
- About the license; I am sure there is a compatible license; I am not familiar with legal matters, but license is very free indeed.

Dictionary
[edit]@TaalTik: Can we make sure spelling dictionaries are (or are going to be made) available under a free license? If they are imported from Mozilla products, Ooo or LibreOffice into an on-wiki gadget, do you know if the licenses can be compatible? whym (talk) 10:57, 19 September 2014 (UTC)

Notification suggestions
[edit]Hoi TaalTik, just a reminder that you should post some notes about your proposal on the Dutch Wikipedia, preferably at several noticeboards. This will bring in more feedback, and perhaps assistance with your idea. PEarley (WMF) (talk) 01:00, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
Similar mentoring projects
[edit]This is similar to mw:Mentorship programs/Possible projects#Collaborative spelling dictionary building tool and mw:Mentorship programs/Possible projects#Unified language proofing tools integration framework. I suggest that you first complete a microtask of those suggested there, and comment on the related bugzilla reports. Then, I'd like to know how the two efforts will help each other. Please contact User:Amire80. --Nemo 09:50, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
