Forum:Oxford Comma

The Serial comma (or Oxford comma) is a comma that comes before the last item in a list. Ex: Bloom, Stella, Musa, Flora. In the English language, its usage is debated (there are more pros than cons to using it), and is an optional choice. To keep things standard on the Wiki, I was thinking we should vote on its usage; for or against. Read the Wikipedia page provided or the blurb below to make an informed decision. Please state either of the following in a comment:


 * For

Or


 * Against

I am for. Without the Oxford Comma (what a fancy name for a comma) it would definitely cause confusion amongst readers. WhiteJasmineFlower (talk) 19:25, March 21, 2019 (UTC)WhiteJasmineFlower

Well, why not? I don't see the difference of using and not using it.
