+RagTag is a collection of software tools for scaffolding and improving modern genome assemblies. Tasks include:
 
 - Homology-based misassembly [correction](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/correct)
-- Homology-based assembly [scaffolding](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/scaffold)
-- Homology-based continuous scaffolding and gap-filling ([patching](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/patch))
+- Homology-based assembly [scaffolding](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/scaffold) and [patching](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/patch)
 - Scaffold [merging](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/merge)
   
 Ragtag also provides [command line utilities](https://github.com/malonge/RagTag/wiki/Usage) for working with common genome assembly file formats.
