Indeed, I too was tempted to point out that bad grammar is often a symptom
of lack of rigour: for that reason I've taken to not correcting the grammar
in Wikipedia unless I feel confident enough to correct the content at the
same time. If it's wrong, it's best to leave clues to the reader that it's
wrong.
