Overlinking[edit]

Hi - Hipponz, I relise your edits were made in good faith, but I have reverted a few of your edits, such as at European Court of Justice, 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.
  • 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) 11:01, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
