If there is a Booki API, then maybe we could talk to the OmegaT devs -
they have a "wikipedia" import function for the purpose of translating
WP pages - maybe we could work on something similar?

I understand what Elisa is asking for, basically, if there's a
decision to spell disk one way (ie, disk, not disc), then you want to
change them all at once. I think it's a similar concept to concordence
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agreement_(linguistics) or
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concordance_(publishing) ).

Or maybe it's just late and I'm misreading everything

cheers

Benford’s law, also called the first-digit law, states that in lists
of numbers from many (but not all) real-life sources of data, the
leading digit is distributed in a specific, non-uniform way. According
to this law, the first digit is 1 almost one third of the time, and
larger digits occur as the leading digit with lower and lower
frequency, to the point where 9 as a first digit occurs less than one
time in twenty. (via @cyberu)
