Spellcheck Files
This repository contains files useful for spellchecking text against a list of known bad words.
Curated List
The curated list was generated from Benutzer:HRoestTypo/replacedDerivatives
Common words
The files lists/de/common_n.dic
contain words that at least n
times in the German Wikipedia.
Article tiles
The files lists/de/titles_de.txt
and lists/en/titles_en.txt
contain a list
of words derived from the article tiles of the de and en Wikipedia. These make
a good white list of words that are likely correct (note that there are few
articles in both projects that are redirects of misspelled titles, it might be
smart to exclude those in the future).
You can get the article titles from
https://dumps.wikimedia.org/dewiki/latest/
Then you can parse each line by splitting on "_" and removing stuff like brackets and then only using unique data.
