Okay. We need to define competent writing because, so far, the responses I've received from the last post surprised me.

How do you define competent writing?

Dictionary dot com has these definitions for competent:

1. having suitable or sufficient skill, knowledge, experience, etc., for some purpose; properly qualified: He is perfectly competent to manage the bank branch.
2. adequate but not exceptional.


I think you were using competent as in definition number two, while others are using definition number one.

When I think of competent, I usually think of definition number two, myself.

Yes, yes, Welshy, that's exactly the definition I'm using.
