==Wikilink overload?==

Hello: new to both EO and this wiki, though I have 16 years in admin-ing wikis, including as senior admin on another sci-fi franchise's primary wiki. (No worries: not asking for privileges.) One of the greatest attributes of wikis is the internal linking. Before I proceed too far in doing so here, I wanted to be certain that adding wlinks in great numbers to an article that I deem lacking is not violating any policies (written or otherwise), such as I did in the lede [https://wiki.eveuniversity.org/index.php?title=Stormbringer&oldid=186212 here]. I appreciate the feedback. --[[User:Kansala Paquin|Kansala Paquin]] ([[User talk:Kansala Paquin|talk]]) 02:38, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

: Hello back, and welcome. This question is more for [[User:Arin Mara|Arin Mara]], the current [[Wiki Department|Wiki Manager]], I will pull her attention to this convo.. Have you seen this [[UniWiki:Welcome]] and are you aware of the #wiki channel on the Uni [[Discord]]? That said: The page you specifically asked about is a [[:Category:Ship Database|Ship Database]] article and the part you edited here is a direct "copy" from the text in-game. In <em>my</em> opinion that part of the information should be left as-is. I also avoid creating red links to articles that, I feel will never be written, but that is my personal style. --[[User:Evon R'al|Evon R'al]] ([[User talk:Evon R'al|talk]]) 10:30, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
