Not kewl. I thot u wuz l33t. UR not!!!!

I’m fairly accepting of a few errors here and there, as long as they don’t litter the entire landscape of the article. I’m much more forgiving of smaller sites than bigger ones, due to obvious staffing constraints. Those who self-edit their work are going to be at a disadvantage, as you are apt to see what you think you wrote, instead of what you actually wrote.

What annoys me the most are factual errors, especially on the larger sites. In July, I got really annoyed when I saw articles that claimed that Derek Jeter had more hits than anyone to ever play for the Yankees.

While Jeter had the most hits AS a Yankee, Paul Waner has the most hits of anyone to ever play for the Yankees (he also played for other teams). A subtle difference, yes, but something the big sports sites should not have been getting wrong – they were blinded by Jetermania and altered his accomplishment to the point where their statements were no longer true.
