remove inappropriate comma
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
A qualifying clause beginning with words like "as", "if", or "although" should have a comma separating it from any following clauses in a sentence, but should not have a comma immediately after the beginning word, unless it is to separate a third, non-essential clause.  

Example 1: "Although I would quite like to go to lunch with you, I find myself instead writing a detailed commit message to justify a single-character documentation change."

Example 2: "Despite, as you might well imagine, wishing I hadn't even noticed it in the first place, I still felt the error was worth correcting."

-- _When sanitizing, protecting or verifying something, whitelists over blacklists._

A blacklist can be a list of bad e-mail addresses, non-public actions or bad HTML tags. This is opposed to a whitelist which lists the good e-mail addresses, public actions, good HTML tags and so on. Although, sometimes it is not possible to create a whitelist (in a SPAM filter, for example), _(highlight)prefer to use whitelist approaches_:

* Use before_filter :only => [...] instead of :except => [...]. This way you don't forget to turn it off for newly added actions.
* Use attr_accessible instead of attr_protected. See the mass-assignment section for details
