NYTM says use a comma unless the two clauses are "exceptionally short": "Nero fiddled and Rome burned." AP Stylebook says: "The comma may be dropped if two clauses with expressly stated subjects are short. I would tend to trust Tony's sense and the sense of some of the regulars at FAC that you have a little more leeway on other continents.
In American English (again.sorry, that's all I know), the 3 most commonly used style guides are in agreement when you have a conjunction joining two clauses that could stand as sentences on their own. Probably, but hard to tell without knowing what "blah" is.
You need to balance a number of needs in determining whether a stronger boundary than just "and" without comma is required.
As far as I know there's nothing wrong with it and it's certainly not a comma splice. Waltham, The Duke of 22:13, 17 July 2008 (UTC) I use a comma if there are other coordinators in the vicinity that might trip up the reader in parsing the sentence. Hell, I'll even manufacture merchandise for the event. Bring me a comma splice, I'll pay for the executioner. Dan Dank55 ( talk)( mistakes) 20:49, 17 July 2008 (UTC) I only use them by mistake, even in talk pages (I'm a fan of semicolons). Sarcasticidealist ( talk) 20:48, 17 July 2008 (UTC) Death to comma splices, I only use them on talk pages. But when this turned up on my watchlist, I thought you were going to propose legalizing comma splices, which would have set me off. Dan Dank55 ( talk)( mistakes) 20:43, 17 July 2008 (UTC) I'm indifferent (personally, I use the comma, as I do in most circumstances in which a comma is optional). NYTM says keep the comma unless the clauses are "exceptionally short". Comma, no comma, doesn't matter? I like the comma. The blah was blah blah blah blah blah blah, and blah did blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Dan Dank55 ( talk)( mistakes) 14:33, 17 July 2008 (UTC) Commas between independent clauses But outside of WP:WORDS, it's been a general observation that not much good is accomplished by trying to tackle "tone" or WP:NPOV issues here for one thing, those issues involve policy or something close to it, so anything we could say here would be in some sense overruled there. Although the size of WP:Words to avoid is a little troubling, I could see the end result of this conversation being an addition over there, if you guys decide that "criticism" shouldn't be used for some purposes. Shouldn't there be "Praising" sections too?. Responding at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#"Criticism" sections. User:Gadget850 mentions that many film articles use "Critical reception" or "Reception" that might not work well for articles about non-artistic subjects, but perhaps there are some other suggested titles we can come up with? - tiny plastic Grey Knight ⊖ 08:23, 17 July 2008 (UTC) Not purely a style issue. My stance is that "Criticism" is too connotative of "negative criticism", as this is the sense in which the word is most often used. Is there a style guideline on this anywhere? I couldn't find one. The question of the title used for "Criticism" sections was raised on the village pump. « Gonzo fan2007 ( talk ♦ contribs) 18:05, 13 July 2008 (UTC) "Criticism" sections

Philip Baird Shearer ( talk) 16:13, 13 July 2008 (UTC) Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive265#Move-protection, feel free to chime in. See User talk:Gonzo fan2007#Wikipedia:Naming conventions I think this needs further discussion at a central place as it effects a lot of pages. Am I being over sensitive? Livitup ( talk) 14:48, 12 July 2008 (UTC) I, too, would prefer, on principle, not to move-protect it. If nobody cares, I'll drop it, but it seemed unnecessary to me so I thought I'd bring it up. See User talk:Livitup#RE:Protection_of_MOS_and_NAME. Gonzo_fan2007 ( talk) has move protected this page and WP:NAME to prevent move vandals.
