From the site: Follow the principles below to write sentences that are clear, to the point, and easier to read.
I think they're claiming a lot more than "here's how to write concise sentences, if that's the style you're aiming for."
Note also that this section ("Clear, Concise, Sentences" [sic]) falls under the heading "Improving Your Writing Style."
- abraxasz 16y ago> "Clear, Concise, Sentences" [sic]) falls under the heading "Improving Your Writing Style." Well I don't see the problem here. It is true that many righting concise sentences can help many people improve their writing style (it's the case for foreigners like me). I think the site targets two types of audience: - Those with very poor style who want to improve - People with good style who just want to learn how to write concise sentences. I'll give an example illustrating the second point. For some of my school projects, I had to review a lot of "science project reports", and similar stuff. Well trust me, it is painful to read a report with long, convoluted sentences expressing a simple idea..
