The page currently lists the names of the 2022 third-round candidates (CRYSTALS-KYBER, CRYSTALS-DILITHIUM, SPHINCS+). NIST published finalized standards in August 2024 with official designations:

  • CRYSTALS-Kyber → ML-KEM (FIPS 203)
  • CRYSTALS-Dilithium → ML-DSA (FIPS 204)
  • SPHINCS+ → SLH-DSA (FIPS 205)

ℹ️ How to fix this error:

  1. If these are actual typos:

    • Open the files at the specified line numbers and fix them
  2. If these are names or one-off nouns:

    • Wrap them in <name> tags
    • Example: <name>Alex Pereira</name>
    • Use this for people's names or unique terms that appear rarely
  3. If these are valid terms:

    • Add them to wordlist.txt (one word per line)
    • Terms must be plain text without spaces/special chars
    • The list is case-insensitive
  4. If these are code terms:

    • Wrap them in backticks (`) in your markdown

ℹ️ Checking for typos locally

  1. Install aspell for your platform
  2. Navigate to project root and run:
for f in **/*.md ; do echo $f ; aspell --lang=en_US --mode=markdown --home-dir=. --personal=wordlist.txt --ignore-case=true --camel-case --add-sgml-skip nospellcheck list < $f | sort | uniq -c ; done
