I'm guessing it's wrong when people say "one fowl swoop" or "one foul swoop"? Should be included in wikitionary entry. --128.6.175.93 18:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Those would be eggcorns. I don't know what the policy is about including them, but if it's widely used and there are examples in print then maybe it should be included. --Qef 14:38, 22 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
Another error / alt form is "swell foop". Some of these may deserve entries. - -sche (discuss) 02:58, 21 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
