Typos & Minor Edits Mega-thread [Closed]

On Region3 | Roblox Creator Documentation there is a link to Workspace:FindPartsInRegion3, this page is empty (and the API member doesn’t seem to exist) and the link should instead direct to WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation

Again the links on WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation reference Workspace | Roblox Creator Documentation and Workspace | Roblox Creator Documentation while it should reference WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation and WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation.

The links on WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation and WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation say Workspace | Roblox Creator Documentation while it should say WorldRoot | Roblox Creator Documentation

It seems as if all the Region3 functions reference blank Workspace pages that should be moved over to WorldRoot.

In the code sample, it says

local accelerometerEnabled = UserInputServiceAccelerometerEnabled

It is missing a period in between UserInputService and AcceleratometerEnabled.
when it should say

local accelerometerEnabled = UserInputService.AccelerometerEnabled

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/class/TeleportService

“Teleporting” is spelled “Telporting”:

Seeing “KillBrick” with an initial capital “i” as shown below (“KIllBrick” looks hard to read. I’d assume capitalizations errors are typos/minor edits.

I found another FilteringEnabled page mistake: it should say ServerScriptService instead of ServerScriptStorage. That link is also broken.

In the ModuleScript page:

It says "If a ModuleScript object is has its Name", when it should be "If a ModuleScript object has its Name"

https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/function/Plugin/GetSetting
https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/function/Plugin/SetSetting

Plugin:GetSetting() has a different code sample then Plugin:SetSetting(), though they are meant to do the samething.

--plugin:SetSetting() Box: 
local runBeforeKey = "RunBefore"
local hasRunBefore = plugin:GetSetting(runBeforeKey)
 
if hasRunBefore then
	print("Welcome back!")
else
	print("Welcome! Thanks for installing this plugin!")
	plugin:SetSetting(runBeforeKey, true)
end

--plugin:GetSetting() Box: 
local Plugin = PluginManager():CreatePlugin()
local RanBefore = Plugin:GetSetting("RanBefore")
Plugin:SetSetting("RanBefore", true)
 
if RanBefore then
	print("Welcome back!")
else
	print("Welcome! Thanks for installing this plugin!")
end

There is a dead link in VR - BP

Change: type() function might also return “vector” as mentioned here: Native Luau Vector3 Beta

print(type(Vector3.new()))

In the description an angle bracket is missing and it breaks the page layout.
table class=“table table-striped table-bordered”>
should be
<table class=“table table-striped table-bordered”>

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local mouse = Player:GetMouse()--Problem is here
-- Setting the mouse icon
mouse.Icon = "rbxasset://SystemCursors/Wait"

on the 3rd and 3rd line Player is spelt with a capital where on the 2nd line its player
i dont know when it started but i only noticed it now.

goto Mouse

Third argument says “envelop”, pretty sure it should be envelope

fteches should be fetches.

Here, InputObject.Rotation should be InputObject.Position and degrees should be radians.

AlignPosition’s PositionAlignmentMode does not exist:

Click this and you get a 404:

It’s worth noting that it doesn’t even exist in the EnumIndex either

Set in Workspace.TouchesUseCollisionGroups page description is wrongly spelled.

clicking on “this” doesn’t lead you to a plugin, it leads you to a image
