Be nice. We all make mistakes in subjects we don't know. I have a few examples in my comment history ...

Try to pick one or two comments that are wrong but not very wrong. Reply to them explaining the error(s). I like to add a Wikipedia link when available.

Ignore the very wrong comments. It's usually impossible to give a coherent reply. You only will get upset.

Also, to encourage a civil discussion try to upvote the grey comments unless they are offensive or extremely wrong.
