That sounds misnomer, illogical from resizing point of view. 'Check' 
suggests fsck, not resizing. Here are some scenarios. What would be the 
most appropriate?

1.      resize2fs|resize_reiserfs|resize_reiser4|ntfsresize
        parted resize

2.      resize2fs|resize_reiserfs|resize_reiser4|ntfsresize
        parted check

3.      resize2fs|resize_reiserfs|resize_reiser4|ntfsresize
        parted align, adjust or whatever is the most expressive
