 !!! warning On setting bdr.default_replica_identity to default
-When setting `bdr.default_replica_identity` to `default` using `ALTER SYSTEM`
+When setting `bdr.default_replica_identity` to `default` using `ALTER SYSTEM`,
 always quote the value, like this:
 ```sql
 ALTER SYSTEM SET bdr.default_replica_identity="default";
 ```
-This is because default, unquoted, is a special value to the [ALTER SYSTEM](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-altersystem.html) command which triggers the removal of the setting from the configuration file. This results in the system using the PGD default setting which is `auto`.
+You need to include the quotes because default, unquoted, is a special value to the [ALTER SYSTEM](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-altersystem.html) command that triggers the removal of the setting from the configuration file. When the setting is removed, the system uses the PGD default setting, which is `auto`.
