    You don’t have to edit your message, nobody is suggesting that. It is, however, terse and unclear.

    I really like the book “Style: Lessons in Clarity and Grace” by Williams [1], you should check it out if you have time. It has a lot of good advice that is easy to apply.

    See Also Elements of Style by EB White [^2].

      Do you mean “The Elements Of Style” by William Strunk Jr? The style guide for formal grammar from 1959 (newest version from 2005)? If not, do you have an IBAN for me?

        Sorry I got my wires crossed with a similar book of the same name.
