Some Words Exchanged On French Syntax

this article, while very rich in its scope, needs more syntactical clean-up by native speakers of english.--ponyboy 05:00, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Should they also be equipped with a knowledge of french ? To avoid confusion ?

Ponyboy, you added the information that Vallès his father was given an assignement to teach, do you also know what he was assigned to teach...as a pion, a surveillant ?

Manners, perhaps ?

Lunarian's provocations ([2],[3], [4]) fail to change the fact that his native language is not English. This article continues to need syntactical and factual clean up. That said, some edits that I made in an attempt to make the article legible have potentially resulted in factual confusion, because I was unknowingly editing a translation.

Ideally, this clean-up will be done not be the user Lunarian, whose English skills leave much to be desired. And it will certainly not be done by me, since in keeping with Wikipedia's policy, "it is better to humor a suspected troll for too long than to drive away a sincere but misguided user". Lunarian's confidence in his English skills is misguided, and my patience for weathering his insults, sexual harassment, and physical threats has waned. --ponyboy 05:22, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

I accept your humor in good taste.

:D !
