Even though your not a core reviewer, your comments are valued.  The
reason I addressed core reviewers specifically as they have +2 permissions
and I would like more leniency on new documentation in other files outside
those listed above (philosophy document, QSG) with a pubic statement of
such.

The issue I see with our QSG is it has the highest bar for review passage
of any file in the repository.  Any QSG change typically requires 10 or
more patch sets to make it through the core reviewer gauntlet.  This
discourages people from writing new documentation.  I don't want this to
carry over into other parts of the documentation that are as of yet
unwritten.  I'd like new documentation to be ok with misspellings, grammar
errors, formatting problems, ESL authors, and that sort of thing.

The QSG should tolerate none of these types of errors at this point - it
must be absolutely perfect (at least in English:) as to not cause
confusion to new operators.
