Adding template {{sic}} to be able to mark words that would be wrongly "fixed" by spell checking
<includeonly>{{{1}}}</includeonly><noinclude>The function of the <nowiki>{{sic}}</nowiki> template is to mark text that is written as intended even with possible spelling errors that should not be changed by an editor.
Furthermore bots such as [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:AutoWikiBrowser AutoWikiBrowser] will usually skip content of templates when looking for spelling errors. This way we can prevent that e.g. Emmark is changed to Enmark.
Example usage:
<nowiki>The players' profile pictures were {{sic|automagically}} updated.</nowiki>
