Abbreviating political subdivisions
Welcome aboard! I want to point you to English Wikipedia's style guide section: MOS:POSTABBR. Generally, using postal abbreviations—such as CA for California, or WA for Washington or Western Australia—is discouraged as they're less likely to be widely understood by our global audience, or could be interpreted as two or more political subdivisions. While I'm on the subject, I want to pre-emptively introduce you to MOS:NOTUSA: essentially if you wish to use the initialism for United States, use US, not USA. Thanks for your helpful edits, and I hope you stick around. →‎ GS →‎ ☎ → 05:51, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
