  Bumping up the thread. No one to take up the challenge? It's going to be a simpler spell checker bot; I guess; or it's more complicated?

  Good idea. However, SMS english may get enabled in the spell checker too.
  I remember Reader's Digest reporting on machine translation from English to Russian of the line from the Bible: 'the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak' came out as: 'the vodka is good but the meat has gone bad'.

  That's Amazing ! Yes if we can add such bot for CE we can remove all the sms texts entered by user and this can be your Final year project Computer Science and IT Engineers.

  Is this a vBulletin 5 Connect, The World's Leading Community Software forum site? Or is it phpBB • Free and Open Source Forum Software? Simple Machines Forum - Free & open source community software? Other?
  
  I thought surely vBulletin would offer something like a bot for their customers, but I looked briefly and didn't see anything. That's surprising.
  
  The Wikipedia format software itself is freely available for download. Though I guess they wouldn't make the bot code available, since it would help the bad guys circumvent it. Still, I'd be surprised if there's really nothing already available.
