I won't agree to "Obama" as that is a persons name. Those suggestions brought up by BBRs spell checker itself are terrible. Although it's a name, and I omit those suggestions, my own inline spell checker flags "Obama" with a possible correction to "Mamba". However, I would agree to seeing the Spell Checker having an "Add for review" button that allowed users to upload missing words to the dictionary. Before being added, it must be reviewed by a moderator of course before implemented site wide. |

Almost all modern browsers support inline spell correction and individuals can add their own words to the browser spell check if they wish |

As is our leader justin , along with a lot of other names that shouldn't be in there. This is why I don't use it as it currently sucks. |
