He also has serious problems with How to Write an Example - Keep it Brief. His posts on Get Help With English Here are often huge Walls of Text, stuffed with vast amounts of specific details that aren't necessary to understand the example.
I have told him repeatedly about the need to shrink down the size of his examples and only include the most relevant information (see here
