Summary
Nowadays a language seems to be a container. Even German is not German. There are differences. Some talks about diversity. Me too I like diversity, it makes the world beautiful. Although we need guidelines. Guidelines can simplify life.
Proposal
In each language there are guidelines. A reference for German is Duden. Articles written in the German Wikipedia must follow these guidelines. There could be a tool implemented, which verifies the grammar as well as the spelling.
Motivation
Even a less educated person gets a help. Such a tool contributes to the quality of each article. If one cannot save an article before the verification is over, there will be no spelling mistakes. First there is a verification, after one can save the article only. Also it helps to get a common understanding, because everybody is forced to use the same language.
Key Questions
- There is Duden for the German language. What about all the other languages?
Potential Costs
One has to pay the work of some software engineers.
