Colon between “that is” and formal definition @Kris: Is everything necessarily wrong if it's not right ? Of course it's understandeable, and it's not the preferred way. I don't see how it could be called wrong per se. FTR, it's tagged [style]. |

Are 'probably' and 'actually' mutually exclusive? It's 'me' who said “oxymoron”, and I think he meant it as such. He's just asking if that's true or not. (This comment is meant as a downvote, only I can't yet ^_^) |

Single quotes for single characters and double quotes for double? I did use that convention at a time, but it didn't last very long (and wasn't backed by anything, either). |

Which variant of English should I use when my target audience is the world? +1 for Postel's law, but -1 for not explaining in what consists being conservative. Which national language, to begin with ? |

What is the best way to mention a word: italics, quotes, or single-quotes (apostrophes)? Would using both italics and quotes qualify as overkill ? Is this "word" highlighted enough, too much, fine ? |
