Overlinking[edit]
Hi Mattarchitecture - I have partly reverted a few of your edits, such as at Bellis perennis and Architect, 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. e.g. sun, house, government etc.
- Names familiar to most readers, including;- continents, major countries, major cities, major languages, major nationalities/ethnicities and major religions e.g. Europe
- 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) 13:58, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
National varieties of English[edit]
Hello. In a recent edit to the page Primo Levi Center, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan, use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the first author of the article used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk.
When the article title is spelled "Center", please do not "correct" that to centre Arjayay (talk) 14:02, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
