Hello. At Tim van de Molen, I noticed that your edit summary said he is not married with a daughter. It seemed that you thought this meant he had married his daughter. Perhaps English is your second language. Please be advised that it is perfectly acceptable English to say that a man is married with a daughter, and does not imply any wrongdoing whatsoever. However, I'm not going to revert your change, as your version is also acceptable. Just pointing out that this acceptable idiom may be misunderstood by those who have limited comprehension of English.

@Akld guy: thanks for letting me know. Can I clarify that the issue you have pointed out is with my edit summary? (not trying to be difficult, just want to understand). Because the statement in the article was incorrect (firstly) and secondly, it could be more clear precisely for the very reason that people who are not English speakers could misconstrue the sentence. In any event, thanks for bringing this to my attention.

I'm just letting you know that your edit on Oscilococcinium was reverted since it appeared to be non-constructive and in conflict with medical sources. Just as an FYI, the lack of efficacy of Oscilococcinium is not controversial at all. It is well-accepted that it is a placebo and nothing more. Thanks.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited BLØF, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Bosse and Umoja (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
