Duplicate links
edit@Randy Kryn: Are you aware that the first to links to Lee Resolution are in consecutive sentences? Not long run-on sentences, either. It's hard to believe that both links are necessary. Perhaps the sentences themselves could be rewritten to avoid duplication? Bruce leverett (talk) 03:44, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
- Thanks for pointing that out Bruce leverett. Of the two links I'd keep the second for its contextual importance, and maybe the two sentences can be combined or at least follow each other without the intervening Jefferson sentence. Randy Kryn (talk) 10:34, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
John Adams Jr.
editIn the beginning, his full name should be “John Adams Jr.”. It is listed as such on his father’s page. ~2026-20753-79 (talk) 16:38, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

Change the "Succeeded by" target into a link to [], so change "Thomas Jefferson" to a link to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Jefferson F8bd6fa4 (talk) 19:19, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
Not done: I believe you are referring to the infobox. Thomas Jefferson is already linked there once. Per MOS:REPEATLINK wikilinks should only be added once per major section. – NJD-DE (talk) 19:31, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
