That's much more reasonable. But I also think it's a waste of time.

The problem with the docs aren't these small gramattical errors. In most cases you cite the meaning is clear, so this is just pedantry.

What bothers me about the documentation is that the explanation of his algorithms is a bit opaque.

But all told, I'd much rather someone contribute than hold back because of concerns about language mastery.

I, like many people, get distracted by easily-corrected mistakes. You can call that a fault of mine, and people like me, but since it's relatively easy to lower the barrier for us to easily consume the material by correcting the language, I think it's worthwhile.
