When a tooltip message is specified, the tooltip displays a garbled message. For example, this:

• Foobar{{Verify spelling|This spelling is non-standard.}}

is rendered as:

• Foobar ^spelling?

which displays a tooltip that says: "Please check to spelling/rendering of This spelling is non-standard.".

Also, the default message is incomplete: "Please check to spelling/rendering of":

• Foobar{{Verify spelling}}
• Foobar ^spelling?

A better default message would be one adapted from {{ clarify}}:

• "The text near this tag may need to be checked for spelling."
