For the record, my own list of 'open' items is:

-#000: (option 1) as much AS sense; (option 2) That's why ALWAYS we always
-#001: (option 1) for better or FOR worse (add 'for')
-#002: (option 3) THIS protest this morning -> The (repetition of 'this')
-#003: (option 2) 'wackos' -> different word?
-#004: Big BusinessES is/are; (option 2) businessES is/are
-#033: (option 2) sacriledge -> sacrilege
-#041: (all options) "from out the window"
-#069: (option 3) this is relativEly small
-#082: (the issue) arrisen -> arisen, and AI's -> AIs, and (option 2) But the androids -> The androids
-#085a: formats hard_dRives accross
-#090: (option 2) AN acceptable rate; No "?" at end of option 2?
-#093c: achievement -> acheivement
-#094: (option 2) "," after randomname
-#106: (option 2) comma between 'expensive' and 'sure'? ; also: programme -> program
-#106b: programme -> program
-#109: programmes -> programs; (option 1): programmes -> programs
-#119a: programmes -> programs

Obviously, these were better explained in the thread itself.

Looks like it. Make another topic and one of the mods will sticky it in due time.

By the way... I don't think you need to "correct" brit-isms and such, as long as they're comprehensible to the general audience.

I thought programme was an alternative spelling of program, albeit a dumb one.

Um, no... it's the other way around. Though we do use 'program' when referring to computer programs.
