I'm not really sure what the conventions are here, so I'm going to use the main article for (what I consider to be fact), and this page for opinion.
Articles: I can't think of more than a handful of examples where it's even possible to correctly determine which article to use (a/an or the). Polish speakers of English typically omit articles, so IMO it's better to also omit them; that is, not to aim to translate from Polish to English better than the Polish do. :) -- Jimregan 09:56, 10 October 2007 (BST)
