User space

[edit]

Hello, I have reverted your addition of user space links to Wikipedia articles. It does not seem a good idea to link from the mainspace directly to Wikipedia user pages in general, and there is no indication any of the individuals would want or expect their user page to be linked in that manner. Best, CMD (talk) 01:37, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is a link on Jimmy Wales's page, so it is obviously allowed. 196.179.220.34 (talk) 01:37, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for letting me know, I have reverted the addition there as well. CMD (talk) 01:45, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'll stop adding unless it gets restored, though it shouldn't be linked on there. No indication on talk page of approval of that instance. 196.179.220.34 (talk) 01:46, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is an explicit edit notice saying so at Template:Editnotices/Page/Jimmy Wales. CMD (talk) 01:59, 20 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
