 **Remediation steps**
 - Signup for automatic dependency updates with one of the previously listed dependency update tools and place the config file in the locations that are recommended by these tools. Due to https://github.com/dependabot/dependabot-core/issues/2804 Dependabot can be enabled for forks where security updates have ever been turned on so projects maintaining stable forks should evaluate whether this behavior is satisfactory before turning it on.

 ### Wasn't this project called "Scorecards" (plural)?
 
-Yes, kind of. The project was initially called "Security Scorecards" but that form wasn't used consistently. In particular, the repo was named "scorecard" and so was the program. Over time people started referring to either form (singular and plural) and the inconsitency became prevalent. To end this situation the decision was made to consolidate over the use of the singular form in keeping with the repo and program name, drop the "Security" part and use "OpenSSF" instead to ensure uniqueness. One should therefore refer to this project as "OpenSSF Scorecard" or "Scorecard" for short.

 ### Code-Review: Can it ignore bot commits?
 
-This is quite a complex question. Right now, there is no way to do that. Here are some pros and cons on allowing users to set up an ignore-list for bots.
+This is quite a complex question. Right now, there is no way to do that. Here are some pros and cons of allowing users to set up an ignore-list for bots.
 
 - Pros: Some bots run very frequently; for some projects, reviewing every change is therefore not feasible or reasonable.
 - Cons: Bots can be compromised (their credentials can be compromised, for example). Or if commits are not signed, an attacker could easily send a commit spoofing the bot. This means that a bot having unsupervised write access to the repository could be a security risk.
