#65384: Fix duplicate-word and spelling typos in docblocks and comments
--------------------------+-----------------------------
Reporter: khokansardar | Owner: (none)
Type: defect (bug) | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone: Awaiting Review
Component: General | Version: trunk
Severity: minor | Keywords: has-patch
Focuses: docs |
--------------------------+-----------------------------
Several docblocks and inline comments in WordPress core contain duplicated
words (`the the`, `in in`, `on on`, `is is`, `from from`, `and and`) and
one minor misspelling (`Compatability`). These do not affect runtime
behavior but reduce documentation quality.
This ticket proposes correcting WordPress-owned files only, leaving third-
party/bundled libraries (ID3, PHPMailer, SimplePie, plupload, jQuery UI)
to be handled upstream.
Affected areas:
* src/wp-includes/ (fonts.php, comment.php, block-template.php,
block-supports/settings.php, rest-api/class-wp-rest-server.php,
class-wp-customize-manager.php, class-wp-theme-json-data.php,
class-wp-recovery-mode-email-service.php)
* src/js/_enqueues/ (wp/dashboard.js, wp/widgets/custom-html.js,
deprecated/fakejshint.js)
* tests/phpunit/ (9 comment/docblock fixes)
