Occasionally, I come across book, or just some editions thereof, that contain obvious spelling mistakes that are printed on the cover.
One examples would be this book: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2... Its title in the GR database which matches what can be seen on the cover is "Crea-volution: Proof That an Evolutionary Bilogist Wrote the Book of Genesis" when it obviously should read "biologist".
Other examples are cheap reprints of old books in the public domain. I've seen a good number that are riddled with spelling errors, especially those in my native language German where some editions treat special characters (umlauts, eszett) as optional. (I saw the same with French publications.)
So the question is: Should we correct these misspellings? My strong urge is to do so but I'm unclear on the GR policy.
