I am a bit confused here. I think this is the pull request for issue 13 #13

Change "error" to "errors" and "correction" to "corrections" to match the verb "are"

Also, given the glossary definition being added, is this supposed to be "Common input errors..." instead of just "Input errors..."?

"as possible to reliably correct an errors" perhaps better "as possible to reliably error-correct"

"or found in user testing to constantly" dangling sentence

  • Fix double "have been"
  • Change "know" to "known"
  • Reword as a clearer comma-separated list (too many uses of "or" without punctuation)

The glossary definition of "common input error" effectively creates a dynamic WCAG normative document by referring directly to the Understanding & Techniques documents. I think this directly conflicts with the definition of these documents as informative and thus not required for conformance. If this is allowed, there would be a precedent set that conformance in 2018 does not mean conformance in 2020. I would recommend narrowing the scope by reworking this definition.

Also, the technique of basing a temperature input on locale mentioned in issue #13 could present issues with consistency with other form inputs/outputs, collaboration across locales, and scientific purpose (e.g. when an absolute scale of Kelvin or Rankine is appropriate). I would recommend removing that from this SC. I also think it would be more at home in another SC because automatic locale changes should not be restricted to just input..

Addressed in d07e6ab. Got some editorial comments but not more substantial ones, further discussion of #13 should take a look.
