Overlinking
Hi Externalexistence, you might want to take a look at MOS:OVERLINK. Your recent contributions to the Buzzfeed article, while well-intentioned, include edits that appear to violate this guideline. For example, MOS:OVERLINK provides that geographic locations that "most readers will be at least somewhat familiar," such as New York City, India, Germany, Mexico, or Japan, do not need to be wikilinked. Your contributions are not wrong by any means, but in general editors are encouraged to follow the manual of style unless there is a good reason not to. Thanks.
