Welcome, but...
It appears your first mission has been to add Wikilinks to articles. This is generally a good idea, but there are certain things that should be kept in mind:


 * 1) WP:OVERLINK describes certain types of links that should not be made, including
 * 2) * everyday words understood by most readers in context;
 * 3) * the names of major geographic features and locations; languages; religions; and common occupations;
 * 4) * pages that redirect back to the page the link is on.

In addition, links where the Wikipedia article linked to is not about the same concept as the article where the the link is created, even if the same words are used, should be avoided. This can be made much worse if piped links are used, leading to the creation of Easter eggs.

Due to some network problems I'm having (my router seems to assign, by default, the same IP address to two different devices, leading to conflicts and time-outs) I don't have time to determine whether most of the link additions fall into that category of links that should not be made, but I've found at least one that is. Please be more careful. — Arthur Rubin (talk) 17:41, 17 December 2014 (UTC)
