1. Support Dan Polansky (talk). Let me support this removal. This does not really belong to CFI. Instead of being removed, it could be abbreviated to state the following (the heading "Formatting" would be removed):

   "Such misspellings as are included should not have full entries, but rather should be mere soft redirects, using {{misspelling of}} or the like on the definition line."

4. Support But, as Dan says, replace it with an abbreviated version out of consideration for the less experienced. The last sentence seems meaningless, since orthography is arbitrary.__Gamren (talk) 15:13, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
5. Support – Gormflaith (talk) 14:51, 13 April 2018 (UTC) As per above. It's useful info but doesn't fit with the rest of the page; other similar explanations like how to format with {{alternative form of}} and {{inflection of}} aren't included.

Abstain. I tend to support this, but let's first see what others have to say in favor and against. --Dan Polansky (talk) 20:06, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

1. Abstain: templated formatting seems fine, but I wonder if we should even have misspelling entries. Seems like a can of worms. --Victar (talk) 14:47, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

   @Victar: The proposal is to remove it from WT:CFI because it doesn't belong there, not because the template is bad. See the the original beer parlor post. —Suzukaze-c◆◆ 01:37, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

2. Abstain: I don't presume to have the knowledge or experience to comment upon this with any confidence or weight, but my primary impression/reaction is to be uncertain of whether misspelling entries are worthwhile at all, as opposed to redirects. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 13:28, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

   Here's Wiktionary:Votes/pl-2014-04/Keeping common misspellings. We only keep common misspellings, like decieve. --Dan Polansky (talk) 15:45, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

   Ah, that helps--thanks for pointing me to that. --SanctMinimalicen (talk) 15:57, 30 March 2018 (UTC)
