In perusing your high quality site (as I do almost daily), I couldn't help but wonder at your use of "median" in the Links section. You say, "Oasis is intended to be a median between all walks of life in order to provide proper education about history, science and all our cultures in the world." This unusual use of the word, notwithstanding its meaning as a midpoint in statistical values, leads me to question if that was your choice of words or a typo, whereas, "medium", "mediate", "mediator" or some other equivalent of "moderator" or "forum" might not better convey to the reader, the character of the Link.

Dr. Gaudia,
Thank you for your comment. The Links section uses the wording found on the linked sites themselves. We don't edit other sites' texts, and so any disagreements with their word choices should be taken up with them directly.
