"Grammar" rule
I realize that edit summaries are difficult to get perfect because of the character limit, so I wanted to ask you about the edit at Australia, where you said, "Grammar: Conjunction preferable to semicolon". I agree that "as" works better in that instance than a semicolon, but it is not true there is a grammar or usage rule saying conjunctions are preferred to semicolons. The choice of either is perfectly acceptable, and which you choose depends on the circumstances and personal preference. Being a question of style rather than quality, in most cases replacing an existing semicolon with a conjunction is not appropriate. -Rrius (talk) 08:34, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
