After applying a deep correction-model (ai-forever/sage) to raise suspicious cases (including punctuation, unknown terms, archaic words, ...), I reviewed the long list (about 10%) and hand-corrected to a short list of unambiguous cases (this PR).
I chose a deep model to handle such cases as "The glass was opacified more greater privacy" where a word-by-word spellchecker fails to see the issue arising from assembling individually valid words.
This deals with examples only, to the exclusion of definitions. Punctuation, capitalization and other issues (like the use of the infamous '--') have been left aside for now. Hopefully these will also be handled at a later stage.
The 'hand' review and correction mean some misspellings may have sneaked through. Inversely I may have introduced false positives. So external reviewing is required.
