The text for OWL 2 DL documents now looks fine to me.

And that's ok, too.
 
However, looking into the Conformance document, there seems to be an error
now in all other definitions. For example:

 
<http://www.w3.org/2007/OWL/wiki/Conformance_and_Test_Cases#Syntactic_Confor
mance>

  "An OWL 2 EL ontology document is an OWL 2 DL ontology where"

Shouldn't it say:

  "... is an OWL 2 DL ontology *document* where"

?

Ditto for QL and RL

Cheers,
Michael
