That's why I put the smiley there and  the "while you were at it", I 
didn't actually expect him to do it ;-)

Well, I'm not sure, but I  think the Belgiums are are using the same 
grammar rules as we Dutch do, so it might _sound_ okay to you but it 
sure isn't ;-)
But I'll be the first to admit that my Dutch isn't 100% either, so 
that's why I checked and double-checked it with http://www.onzetaal.nl 
which is a very good source for answer to all those difficult 
grammar/spelling/style questions in the Dutch language.

This one too, although maybe it needs to say _what_ you have to click. 
("Klik Ok/Ja/Verwijder om ....")

Likewise

Saying "Affirm to delete" could better be replaced by "Click yes to 
delete" IMO.

This one sounds a bit silly in NL Dutch but I guess we could live with 
it ;-)
