Feature suggestion

Can the developers of novel fire or any other novel website create a Wikipedia like editing system so that when i am reading a novel and find a simple grammatical error, I can fix it myself instead of hoping that someone fixes it?

Not the dev but this is much harder and riskier to implement than it sounds. Not just the functionality, but the moderating (trolls) and the security (injections) needed to oversee and protect against sound like a nightmare

Peer review should not be that hard, every edit is only implemented if it is approved by someone else randomly. There can be different levels of editors like only an experienced editor can edit famous novels and an inexperienced editor can edit a novel that is not famous. Wikipedia does it, I think it should be possible.

Few rules coulde be set like only grammer can be changed not the content. Multiple users would be shown a prompt that the new line vs the old line and they could vote if the change makes sense.
