A new user is beginning to use the 'spellcheck' tool. He has made "spelling corrections" like /na/ -> /i te/, which is clearly not a change we want in the Wordlist... But now > 21,000 instances of /na/ have a red underline. How can I remove such things from the Wordlist. "Help" has no guidance that I could find, so thanks for any you can provide! ;-)

Once a word has been marked as incorrect, you can simply click on Undecided (?) to let Paratext know that it is not incorrect. If the word is in fact correct, then it should be marked as correct.

Thanks, Phil. So there's no way to /remove/ a wrong "correction"?  I'd rather have no trace of it in the Wordlist, lest someone accidentally click that tempting blue hyperlink that says "Apply Correction". :-P Or have it "sneak" into Approved spellings by way of the "Approve spelling of common words" function. :-(
If you look at my example, if I click on the question mark it will change the entry back to undecided and remove the suggested corrrection. The same would happen if I click on the check mark to indicate that the word is actually correct.
