In the Appendix, amend the rule “Clarifications - Spelling and formatting” by replacing:
“Snails may correct obvious spelling, punctuation, and/or typographical mistakes in the Ruleset, the Building Blocks page, and their own Pending Votable Matters at any time, including replacing Spivak and gender-specific pronouns that refer to Snails with the corresponding forms of the singular ‘they’.”
with:
“Snails may correct obvious spelling, punctuation, typographical, and/or formatting mistakes in the Ruleset, the Building Blocks page, and their own Pending Votable Matters at any time, including replacing Spivak and gender-specific pronouns that refer to Snails with the corresponding forms of the singular ‘they’.”
This change expands the scope of acceptable fixes to include formatting issues, ensuring consistency and clarity in the ruleset and related content.
Seems a strict improvement to me

We have a special requirement for altering rules outside of the dynastic rules. You must indicate the specific area of the rules that you’re intending to change, in this case “Clarifications” is in the Appendix, so the Appendix is what you should indicate.
You can do this by either adding a “tag” to the title of this Proposal in square brackets, i.e. “[Appendix]”, or add the phrase “In the Appendix,” to the beginning of that very first sentence. Either is valid.
