Why did you revert my edit
[edit]You reverted my edit to the Kingdom of the Netherlands,how was it not an improvement,maybe adding the long form names was unesessery,okay,but what about adding the link to the page about the netherlands? How is that not an improvement,can you please explain? UnsungHistory (Questions or Concerns?) (See how I messed up) 23:01, 8 November 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @UnsungHistory: I revered because Netherlands is already linked in the previous sentence, and adding another link is not really helpful per MOS:DUPLICATELINK. Also, Wikipedia generally prefers to use WP:COMMONNAMES rather than WP:OFFICIALNAMES, since that is what readers will be most familiar with. TDL (talk) 01:34, 15 November 2024 (UTC)
Reminder to participate in Wikipedia research
[edit]Hello,
I recently invited you to take a survey about administration on Wikipedia. If you haven’t yet had a chance, there is still time to participate– we’d truly appreciate your feedback. The survey is anonymous and should take about 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement.
Take the survey here.
Kind Regards,
