hitko29956yDon't overuse it. "Please fix errors in your form" is polite, "Please" on each field validation error is just unnecessary and annoying. - 
				
				Similar to adding the suffix “ because you suck.” at the end of the message. It’s better if you don’t.

MrComment306yAlso I love it when user report a problem with an validation error like "Please enter an item id" and the user has no clue what to do to fix the error. Happens more often that it should -.- - 
				
				___ must be between {min length} and {max length} characters long
___ is required
___ can only contain {data type}*
*If your ___ contains other values, please contact support <— in case you didn’t read up on global conventions for a type of data and naively assumed it was consistently in the form you are accustomed.
