The text on that page should be adjusted.  e.g. if Elton John has a song with 'alright' in the title; it's his work and he can spell it like that if he wants to; we have no cause to change it.

Also, not all of the misspellings are misspellings: Tao Teh Ching is an alternative spelling, not an incorrect one.

It's a cool feature though.  I just corrected several pages.
