Making links

Hallo, I noticed your recent edits to Hugo Frey (musician). You added two problematic links.

1. You linked American: not helpful as it leads to a "disambiguation page". In fact nationalities in lead sentences are not usually linked, so I've unlinked it. If you'd wanted to specify that he was from the USA you could have added [[United States|American]], which would appear as the word "American" but lead to the article on the United States.
2. You linked The Troubadours, but if you follow that link it's to a British 2000s rock band. It's always a good idea to check that every link you add goes to where you expect it to go to. It doesn't seem very likely that anyone's going to write an article about Frey's Troubadours, so I've unlinked it. If we'd thought an article likely, we could have made a redlink as [[The Troubadours (US band)|The Troubadours]], which appears as The Troubadours.

There's a lot to learn about editing Wikipedia, but it's an interesting journey - Happy Editing! PamD 21:51, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
