Hello, and welcome to contributing to Wikipedia. I see you have made a very small start, and I hope you will make further contributions. However, there's something you should know before you add any more links from one article to another ("Wikilinks"). One article should link to another only if the second one contains information likely to help a reader to know about the topic of the first article. Normally that is so only if the second article contains further information about that topic, or if it clarifies the meaning of a term used in the first article which readers are likely to need to have explained in order to understand content of that article. Putting in links that don't follow that principle is not only unnecessary, but can actually be harmful, as research has shown that the more irrelevant or only marginally relevant links an article has, the less likely readers are to find the more relevant ones. The article United Kingdom doesn't contain any information about Don't Let the Feeling Go, so it's questionable whether a link to it is a good idea. I don't know what proportion of people in the world wouldn't know what the abbreviation "UK" stands for, but there may be quite a lot of them, so I think it's better to spell out "United Kingdom", but that should be enough, and linking to the article United Kingdom, full of information totally irrelevant to Don't Let the Feeling Go, probably isn't necessary.

Thank you very much for such a kind and detailed explanation. BlackBony (talk) 19:28, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Swedish Empire (disambiguation)

The article Swedish Empire (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Only two items including the primary topic, better handled with hatnotes

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

East church

Hi, I am not sure what has prompted you to go about moving pages to weird names, but there is no consensus for these page moves; you haven't even discussed them or even justified them in an edit summary! Elizium23 (talk) 21:57, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @Elizium23, I thought it is obvious, otherwise there is no real disambiguation. But if you have an objection, I will initiate a move request. BlackBony (talk) 22:01, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
