It clarifies setup, hardware, feature, API, and interface guidance without changing product behavior. ChangesDocumentation guidance
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This documentation-only PR removes filler wording and corrects phrasing across 31 pages without changing product behavior. Several edits still leave ambiguous or grammatically incorrect technical guidance, including API wording that may imply the wrong number of color slots, so the PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on these documentation issues.

- Line 285: Update the documentation sentence to replace “Web UI interface” with
“Web UI,” preserving the rest of the wording and technical meaning.
In `@docs/basics/getting-started.md`:
- Line 80: Update the GPIO example in the getting-started documentation to use
the grammatically correct “e.g., D4” punctuation, preserving the surrounding
pinout guidance.
In `@docs/features/relay-control.md`:
- Line 27: Revise the relay-control sentence for clear grammar by adding the
missing articles and changing “Multi relay usermod” to the canonical “Multi
Relay usermod” capitalization, while preserving the existing meaning and
guidance.
- Line 27: Update the PIR sensor MQTT documentation in the paragraph containing
“/motion” to state that the published topic is the configured MQTT device topic
followed by “/motion,” and include the existing example format such as
“wled/deviceMAC/motion” rather than describing it as a standalone topic.
In `@docs/interfaces/json-api.md`:
- Line 381: Rewrite the CCT/RGB sentence in the documentation to clarify that
RGB color and the white channel are controlled through three shared color slots
per segment, not six independent slots; preserve the per-segment CCT behavior.
In `@docs/interfaces/udp-realtime.md`:
- Line 115: Update the sentence in the Web control documentation to replace the
ambiguous pronoun “it” with the explicitly named active component, using simple,
clear language.

| Note that there is no GND connection between the controller and the amplifier. And this despite the fact that with all other WLED circuits it is always said that all GNDs must be connected to each other. This special feature is due to the fact that the inputs of the amplifier are galvanically decoupled from the outputs by optocouplers and the amplifier in this circuit is used slightly differently than its usual application. | ||

Went through every hunk. The rewrites read faithful to the original meaning, including the MOSFET and amplifier-GND paragraphs, and the typo fixes all check out (no leftover "Sensivity"/"Persistant" variants in effects.md).
Two coordination notes:
- This PR overlaps #364 in several of the same regions: the
&NF=row sits in a table #364 reformats, #364 deletes thepssrow whose typo is fixed here, and the ARLS section in udp-realtime.md is being discussed for relocation over there. Whichever PR merges second will need a manual pass, and a couple of these hunks become moot if #364 lands first. - The PR title itself has "coreect some speling errors" in it. Worth fixing before merge since it becomes the commit message.
Three small inline comments, otherwise LGTM.

@bharvey88 thanks for the cross-reading 🥇 You're right this one overlaps with parts of #364, I'll merge this one first and then try to patch up #364. |

- Line 46: Update the documentation sentence around “LED outputs” to remove the
colon after the quoted phrase, so it reads “LED outputs” section while

This updates documentation pages that used filler-heavy lead-ins and weak transitions, replacing them with direct wording that is faster to scan and easier for non-native English speakers to follow. The content stays the same; only the phrasing is tightened.
Cut phrases that announce a point instead of making it. Direct statements read better and are easier for non-native English speakers.
