The ratings for French and Dutch are only for reading and translating into English. My ability to write in either language is quite poor.

I like conciseness in articles, so most of my edits involve reworking existing text and removing redundant phrasing. I find the following phrases can normally be removed without any effect on the meaning of the text: see WP:NOTED
 * It must be noted that
 * Interestingly
 * However,
 * On the other hand
 * Some point out that
 * Of course,
 * Obviously,
 * It was reported that
 * Sources revealed that
 * In month/year it was announced that
 * is known for

I also try to move the focus of articles from the word to the topic. Removing phrases like: see WP:NOTDIC
 * is a term that refers to
 * describes
 * refers to
