==Automation==
Some of these checks can be automated, others by their nature can not. The script [[File:Qa_check.sh]] provides an example of how DocBook XML might be automatically checked for:
* Misspelled words
* Repeated words
It also currently checks for use of entities outside the Feedback / Legal Notice / Book Info files. This script could also be extended to check for:
* Broken links
* Contractions
* Suggestions welcome?
