@per1234 I think this sounds better and is a simpler word. Could you see any reason why not to merge it? |

Even though the previous word "proceeding" was not necessarily wrong, I think this proposal is an improvement. |

The word "preceeding" is definitely *wrong*, it refers to something that
happened BEFORE while the word "following" refers to something that is
AFTER the statement.
"Preceeding" is incorrect usage to describe an item that "follows" the
description. No ambiguity here, there is nothing preceding when the item
described follows the description.

@kb7hunter you misread. The word is "proceeding", not "preceeding". Despite similar spellings, they have opposite meanings. Regardless, I appreciate you taking the time to improve this documentation. Thanks! |
