Over 11000 typos were fixed across Wikipedia through the project "Wikipedia:C"Wikipedia:Correct typos in one click" is a project that helps editors correct typos in one click"across Wikipedia.
The project methods can be applied to any wiki and any language.

The process of the project in the editor side:

4 Buttons of "replace", "type", "remove" will appear on the project page, and will allow you to correct suspect typos in one click.
5 Fix or dismiss at least 5 words using the added buttons.
I can share the algorithm for creating the list,The process on the admin side:
1 Create a list of misspellings of real words - my list is downloadable at https://typos.site/33mcorrections.rar (should be extracted after download)
2 Download a copy of the whole wiki site, for the current task download "Articles, templates, media/file descriptions, and primary meta-pages." from https://dumps.wikimedia.org/enwikibooks/20191201/ (extract after download)
3 Search for the list of misspelled words in the downloaded wiki, using this C code: https://github.com/Uziel302/websites-spell-checker/blob/master/enwiki%20autocorrect.c To compile C program you will need either access to UNIX command line (Mac/Linux/Chromebook machine) or, if using Windows machine, use a development environment like CodeBlocks.
4 Create a project page by searching "Wikibooks:Correct typos in one click" inside en.wikibooks.org and clicking the red link to create the page. if someone wants to localise to other language.Basic content you can copy from English Wikipedia project page.
5 Copy the list of typos the C program produced into the project page.
6 Start fixing typos from the list as done on the editor part!
