i was wondering what the following mean if anybody could help? et al? and no canvassers?

Answer 1

et al means additional authors
no canvassers is a request for basically no soliciting. Canvasser is a term used for someone who canvasses neighborhoods selling magazines or siding treatment or stuff like that. so no canvassers or canvassing is asking not to be solicited via door to door

Answer 2

et al = everybody

No canvassers = Do not knock at my door asking my opinion or trying to sell me anything

Answer 3

All "Your fave" questions are going to be reported by users as chatting. It is not asking for facts or factual advice, just 100% opinion. Great to ask on Facebook or Twitter, so it doesn't work here. As to the Duncan question, go back through your list of questions and see if it was restored. If that is all you posted, you should win the appeal, although they can take months.

Answer 4

et al means and all the other authors of a certain writing :0)

Answer 5

Et Al is Latin for "and others".
