Wikipedia articles follow the
Wikipedia:Manual of Style and its associated guides which have been developed by the Wikipedia community in order to make Wikipedia articles easier to read, higher quality and generally consistent in appearance.
I have reverted the edits of User: 99.240.111.186, which have not been in the Wikipedia style, for the following reasons:
Dates should no longer be linked in Wikipedia, unless there is a really good reason to do so. See
WP:CONTEXT#Date
It is incorrect to link plain English words or to link the same thing over and over. These links, like date links, add clutter to articles without providing useful information. See
WP:OVERLINK.
Links should not be made to articles that do not exist yet unless you plan to write an article for those subjects really soon. Books published in a foreign language are a good example of subjects about which there is likely never going to be a Wikipedia article (unless you write one yourself). These “dead links” appear in red, and make the article more difficult to read.
Headings must follow “sentence case”, and not “Title Case”. In sentence case, only the first word and proper nouns (like the names of people, places and organizations) should be capitalized. Don’t capitalize all the words as you would in Title Case. See
WP:MOSHEAD.
External sources (i.e., not other Wikipedia articles) should be provided for any information that is added. See
Wikipedia:Verifiability.
Articles should be written in a neutral tone. See
WP:NPOV. Just report the facts, and let readers draw their own conclusions. We do not have to tell the reader that the subject of the article was a good person or a great scholar. If the person’s actions and words show this, then the reader will draw that conclusion for her or himself.
I will continue to revert changes that violate the Wikipedia Manual of Style or other policies, and will protect the article to prevent these changes if necessary.
