thanks and further help please
On article Christina Broom you kindly added reference to NPG exhibition but the citation does not have the date of access or URL to link to. If you know that detail would you kindly edit it in - Many Thanks I am still a learner.

"Mrs Albert Broom (Christina Livingston)". National Portrait Gallery, London. Missing or empty |url= (help); |access-date= requires |url= (help) Kaybeesquared (talk) 22:42, 21 March 2020 (UTC)

National Portrait Gallery links
Hi Julia, thanks for adding links to the National Portrait Gallery to Wikipedia articles. However, I had to revert your link at Joan Armatrading because it's already in the references section and we are very very selective about external links for popular musicians. Also, please use the template NPG name when adding NPG links, especially to external links sections, as this provides a standardised format for them. In particular, linking to the National Portrait Gallery, London Wikipedia page is much better than linking to the gallery's official website, as you have done. Thanks!

 * I've just gone through all your edits, replacing all hard-coded links with templatised ones where the portraits were *of* the article subject. With the articles where the links were to portraits *by* the subject, I kept the hard-coded links but replaced the links to the NPG homepage with links to its Wikipedia article. I also moved some down in the external links section ... I don't think it's a good idea to add them to the top of the external links section unless the article is about an artist who features heavily in the NPG. See my above message about popular musicians with just one link in the external links section to their official website ... the only other person who fit that description in your edit history was Marc Almond, and I removed the link from his page. I also moved the external links section you added to Mary Sophia Allen; those sections should be at the end of the page, per the layout guide.
 * While I was reviewing your edits, I took the opportunity to add National Portrait Gallery IDs to Wikidata, which is why NPG name works in most of the articles I fixed without any other parameters, like an ID number. I think this'd be a good thing to do, but if you can't, just writing something like (where 12345 is the ID number) would be fine. Graham 87  14:41, 24 April 2020 (UTC)
