Aug 17, 2016 at 12:17 comment added user812786 I think it's a valid question! It is about a specific thing, so not "too broad". The answer just might be "either is ok". (I'll think about it but I don't have time to write an entire answer right now, so maybe someone else will first)
Aug 17, 2016 at 12:15 comment added Mattew Oh ok :( I'm sorry, Do I have to close the question?
Aug 17, 2016 at 12:13 comment added user812786 Just that there are a lot of opinions. Some people think it is bad grammar to have dangling prepositions, but others think either way is equally valid.
Aug 17, 2016 at 12:12 comment added Mattew What you mean with "controversial topic"? Is it too broad?
Aug 17, 2016 at 12:11 comment added user812786 This is a controversial topic :) See -en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preposition_stranding#In_English The first is more formal, but the second is what I'd expect to hear in conversation.
