== Suggestions for improving links ==

Catchpoke, I can see that you want to improve Misplaced Pages, and we welcome improvements. Although links via ]s should generally be left alone, we do have one category which should usually be bypassed: links to ]. If an article links to {{-r|Antartic}}, it should usually be corrected to ]. (Such redirects are normally tagged with {{tl|R from misspelling}}.)

There are similar ways in which you could help which may be equally rewarding. One is to look at links to ]. These are generally wrong. For example, a careless editor may have linked to ] when they intended a ] to ] or ]. ] would be happy to help you get started. Alternatively, you could look at links which lead to the wrong article, perhaps because it has a confusingly similar name. For example, some editors seem to think that iPhones are sold by ] but, as that article is about a fruit, a piped link to ] would be better. Again, guidance is available, this time from ]. There are other ways to contribute, and I hope that you will find some that suit your tastes. ] (]) 10:19, 29 August 2021 (UTC)

] You currently appear to be engaged in an ]&#32; according to the reverts you have made on ]. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to ] with others, to avoid editing ], and to ], rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:
# '''Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;'''
# '''Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.'''
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's ] to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an ] or seek ]. In some cases, it may be appropriate to ]. If you engage in an edit war, you '''may be ] from editing.'''
