Spelling, grammar, and other stickler corrections/suggestions

Is there a way to give corrections to grammar and spelling?
An example is
https://boardgamearena.com/page/reputation
The corrections would be:
(this is not supposed to happened...) -> (this is not supposed to happen...)
Be a good looser -> Be a good loser
I know I'm a stickler about it, but it makes it much easier to read for everyone

Yes, you can suggest changes to the English text from the translation system (Community / Help us translate). Thanks for your help!

This entire article has a number of translation/spelling/grammar errors that make it difficult to read. Short of a complete review/re-write, I pointed out an additional difficulty, is support of the OP.

Oh. That's completely obsolete, how did you get to this page? We should fix the links to go to the FAQ instead. I hadn't paid attention that this was the page OP was referring to.

I think I got here by scanning the Community forum active articles - OP was there. You should kill this thread since the old Reputation seems stale compared to the FAQ.

I found it via Google so that may be how I navigated to it without going through BGA itself. Thanks for the responses!

Then do 1 simple edit to that specific page, clear all text and say "sorry, this page has been replaced by [this page-url]", that way if people get threre through google or any other means, they are directed to the right place.
