Page counter
t would be nice to see a feature that at the bottom of every page it says what page you're on, so for example if you're on the second page and your document has nine pages it says "page 2 of 9" at the bottom of that page

Word should have a vulgarity check in order to prevent embarrassing and potentially offensive typos.
It would simply flag commonly vulgar/offensive words in order to make a user aware of them. This would prove useful when proofreading documents as even if your brain automatically corrects the word, because it is flagged with an underline you will take a second look at it. Thereby giving you an opportunity to amend the error.

Make it possible for spell-checking to ignore words with initial capital letters
Sometimes I have texts with lots of relatively exotic names in them, and it would be useful to have the spellchecker (or editor) ignore them.

Toggle profanity filter for dictation
I'm a fiction writer. Constantly having asterisks instead of the word I dictated because Word randomly deems that word inappropriate is frustrating and forcing me to go manually write it. It's all the more aggravating when I dictate something like "a chicken breast with fries" and it writes "a piece of chicken #### with fries". I mean come on...
It's even worse in French with a greater number of perfectly innocent words (like "poursuite" meaning "pursuit") that I cannot even begin to fathom what makes them get flagged as vulgar.
Dictation in Word isn't a chat that needs stricter monitoring…

new page
where it says page 1 of 5 I think you should be able to just click on that and then have it give you the option to delete a page or to add a page.

Customizing the Ribbon
Stop "locking" the sections of the Ribbon--not only for Word but for all Office apps. I/the user should not have to create custom group in order to add a command. Locking the default sections of the Ribbon hamstrings the user and stifles creativity/individuality.

SIGN-IN option on ribbon in Word 365
PLEASE add option to remove newly-added permanent SIGN-IN option on ribbon in Word 365 and the Onedrive Save feature also on the ribbon. I use Word professionally with personalized links on the ribbon and this simply and forcibly clutters it up with features that are useless to me.
