Soften the advice for "check"

Open julian-cable opened this issue 11 months ago • 13 comments

Current entry:

check Avoid. Use "verify", "ensure", or "read", depending on the context.

Maybe: Avoid if an alternative verb such as "verify", "ensure", or "read" fits in the context. Instead of "check this site", use "Refer to www.somewhere.com for more information."
