Thanks for the info. I'm slightly confused, am I uploading to wiki or
following Jean's advice and letting someone proof it before? It's honestly
a really simple addition. It's more to address the user who submitted the
request and knock one of the 5,000+ bugs off the list :) I can even post it
here:

*This is pertaining to bug reported here*:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41600

*The original text is located in:*
Install the required dictionaries

*It reads:*
LibreOffice automatically installs several dictionaries with the program.
To add other dictionaries, be sure you are connected to the Internet, and
then use Tools > Language > More Dictionaries Online. LibreOffice will open
your default web browser to a page containing links to additional
dictionaries that you can install. Follow the prompts to select and install
the ones you want.


*I changed/added to the following:*
LibreOffice automatically installs several dictionaries with the program.
To add other dictionaries, be sure you are connected to the Internet, and
then use Tools > Language > More Dictionaries Online. LibreOffice will open
your default web browser to a page containing links to additional
dictionaries that you can install.

When you download the dictionary or dictionaries that you want, they will
be in the open office extension format (.oxt). In order to install these
extensions use Tools > Extension Manager...click on Add...located at the
bottom of the extension manager dialog. Navigate to the appropriate folder
containing your dictionary in .oxt format, select the oxt dictionary and
click Open.


Many thanks,
Joel
