In Area 51, the description automatically begins with the word "For", and sometimes users, when writing the description of the proposal, do not realize this and write "for" again, resulting in "for for"....

The point: Can we have Area51 detect "for" at the beginning and edit it out automatically?

An example:

Thoughts?

  • You could also comment on the proposal stating that there's an extra 'for'.

  • Computers are supposed to make things easier for humans! It's far less effort to have the computer do it when relevant - at the point it's prefixed, just make it replace ^(?i:for )? with For and it solves the problem for everyone, instead of wasting time manually commenting and editing each time it happens.
