Overlinking
[edit]Hi - I have reverted a few of your edits for overlinking - so I have come to explain the reason.
As explained at WP:OVERLINKING we only link the first use of a term in any main section of an article, and we do not normally link:-
- Everyday words understood by most readers. - such as million and wedding, which you linked
- Names familiar to most readers, including;- major countries, major cities, major languages, major nationalities/ethnicities and major religions
- Common units of measurement, years and dates
There are many articles where these are already, incorrectly, linked; however, we are trying to reduce this, not increase it - Thanks - Arjayay (talk) 13:52, 30 October 2023 (UTC)
This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address. |
