  • They met while attending Abingdon School, a boys-only public school in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. - Abingdon is pipelinked just to Abingdon, just link the whole thing, "Abingdon, Oxfordshire"
  • The band have received five BRIT Award nominations but has yet to win one. - comma after nominations.
  • Some of the publishers need to be linked and spelled out entirely.--SRX 21:14, 30 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'd rather just link the city name since cities and states are supposed to be linked separately. Comma is unnecessary. The acronym publishers are better known by their acronyms than their full names, like the BBC. Gary King (talk) 00:36, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Comma is necessary because when you read it out loud you need to take a pause before going on to "but". Also, well at least link the publishers.--SRX 00:58, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I added the comma, but I still disagree with it. My personal preference is to not link publishers; sometimes people want, sometimes they don't. I assume it's to learn more about the publisher, which may be helpful in knowing if it's relevant and reliable, but in most cases it just causes unnecessary overlinking in the references as they should probably all be linked since you can't tell which reference the reader would land on first.
