    It's a contentious issue; sadly, I don't know the answer.

    Here's an example:

    My favourite all-time Man United players are: Eric Cantona; Jaap Stam; Dwight Yorke and Cristiano Ronaldo.

    Interesting read and graph illustrating the decline in usage of the semi-colon.

    please log in to view this image


    Should a campaign be mounted to stop this decline?

    Nope. When you need a runaway thread killed you call an expert.

    My job here is done.

    To the grammar cave!

    The alternative: sitting here; doing nothing; allowing the decline of the semi-colon to continue, doesn't bear thinking about.
