MOS matters

 * There are still HarvRef errors; it might be useful to install User:Trappist the monk/HarvErrors.js
 * In fact, because there were also MOS date and MOS:PAGERANGE errors, it might be useful for FAC reviewers to install all the scripts at User:SandyGeorgia/Useful and remember to check those items.
 * Maybe this wasn't meant to sound passive aggressive, but it really did come across that way. You presumably did not note that during my open source review above, I stated: "Consistently use xxx–yyy for page ranges, per MOS:NUMRANGE. At the moment, a mix of xxx–yyy and xxx–yy are used."

 * MOS:PERCENT seems to disagree with the way the percentages are written in the lead, and there is some inconsistency between the symbol and the words, but the guideline is gibberish so I'm unsure how to fix those.


 * PS, it seems I caused the HarvRef errors; sorry (iPad editing, as usual). Sandy Georgia (Talk)  20:10, 8 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Would you strike through the comment about HarvRef errors then, please?
 * I changed % to percent.
 * For page range errors, I assume you mean something like "151–53" (sic) instead of "151–153". I see that you fixed one error, thanks! Do you see others? I looked fairly carefully, and I did not see any.
 * Finally, your script seems to have fixed any MOSDATE errors... thanks! &sect; Lingzhi (talk) 20:45, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, but caused another error at the same time. As there is nothing of significance in this section now, I will move it to talk once I am not iPad editing from a hotspot. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  23:58, 8 May 2023 (UTC)

✅ All resolved; this was a very abbreviated look at MOS matters-- I didn't have time for more. Sandy Georgia (Talk)  02:13, 9 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Consistency: HK$ but US $.  MOS:CURRENCY seems to suggest no space, but it's written about as well as MOS:PERCENT. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  02:27, 9 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Abbreviations throughout should be reviewed: eg Fed (I added), but noticed that NYSE is used but never defined or linked.  FTSE, etc.  Link and define on first occurrence. Sandy Georgia  (Talk)  02:32, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I think I've resolved these...thanks! &sect; Lingzhi (talk) 06:45, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
 * ✅ All resolved (sorry for the piecemeal ... iPad editing). Sandy Georgia (Talk)  10:41, 9 May 2023 (UTC)
