Should it be MLM or written MLM ? Is there a way to know when it should be italicized or is it a stylistic choice that has not been consistent throughout the article? Thanks for helping Narbine ( talk) 22:35, 20 May 2022 (UTC) reply

@ Narbine: I'm many months late here, but the reason is MOS:WORDSASWORDS. It can look a bit weird in an article about a term like this, because of all the swapping between italicised and un-italicised text, but it is how the MOS recommends to write.

The content of this article is largely similar to Gay sexual practices, should these articles be merged, or perhaps changed to show a clearer differentiation between MSM the clinical topic and GSP the sexuality topic? ペゴボド同士 ( talk) 08:10, 25 November 2022 (UTC) reply
