I just closevoted a question asking about the meaning of the highlighted "word" in parents seeking to secure a good Mure for their children.
As a native speaker (with poor eyesight! :) I could easily see that Mure was some kind of transcription error for future. But I'm fully aware that non-native Anglophones may find this sort of thing much more difficult.
Noting that ELL Meta has dedicated pages for "[approved] resources" (dictionaries, style guides, etc.), I wonder if it might be useful to have a page here with some guidance on how to easily check for the possibility of a transcription error (both to establish whether it's likely such an error has occurred, AND in hopes of finding out what the real text should be).
So if you think this question might become a useful resource, please upvote it. Maybe we should even migrate "transcription error" questions from the main site to Meta, then closevote them against this, I dunno.
And if you can articulate useful guidance here for how to recognize and resolve problems of this type, please post anything you've got as a (community Wiki?) Answer.
