<h1>What is an Error?</h1>
</header>
<p>Errors are counted by <em>character</em>, not by
<em>word</em>. The following are errors:</p>
<ol>
<li>Incorrect characters (e.g., <samp>c</samp> for
<samp>e</samp>).</li>
<li>Transposed characters (e.g., <samp>teh</samp> for
<samp>the</samp>).</li>
<li>Missing characters, including missing spaces (e.g.,
<samp>tht</samp> for <samp>that</samp> or <samp>isit</samp>
for <samp>is it</samp>).</li>
<li>Inserted characters, including spaces (e.g., <samp>c
at</samp> for <samp>cat</samp>).</li>
</ol>
<p>The following are not considered errors:</p>
<ol>
<li>Differences in capitalization (e.g., <samp>pRince</samp>
for <samp>Prince</samp>).</li>
<li>Extra spaces (e.g., <pre>is it</pre> for <samp>is
it</samp>.</li>
<li>Typographical errors present in the original.</li>
</ol>

<h1>Article Titles</h1>
<p>Article titles are weighted most heavily in searching and
so must be particularly accurate.</p>
<ol>
<li>Open each article to be tested on the Historical
Newspapers website. It may be faster to search for an
article title than navigate to it.</li>
<li>Check the spelling of each word in the title. Highlight
errors in red.</li>
<li>When you have checked all titles, count the number of
character errors and note the total.</li>
</ol>
