Italics or not?

[edit]

I suspect not, in which case the italics in the "usages" section need to go. If it is supposed to be italicised, then it should be throughout. Huw Powell (talk) 15:45, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm, Chambers does not italicise it. Huw Powell (talk) 15:46, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Opening sentence was wrong way around

[edit]

I've restored my edit. As is clear from the subsequent text, a decree nisi will become absolute by default, *unless* it can be shown that the decree is faulty in some way. The previous text suggested that by default, a decree nisi would not become absolute.

OK -- I've clarified what you wrote; I think you just missed that one word that needed to be changed. That was why I originally reverted -- I couldn't tell what you intended. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 09:57, 14 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
