:Too literally interpreted. Seasons/Series pages are huge and therefore each section is huge, therefore a link should be there more than once if the thing linked to is mentioned more than once, as long as these links are not too close together and too often. The notion that you can’t do that is ridiculous as it requires you to scroll, something that very policy actually says in the very text of it that linking prevents. Furthermore most pages on the wiki has at least one section and require you to scroll, and those without sections are 3 paragraphs long at most and doesn’t require the readers to scroll, and therefore would not require multiple-linking. In conclusion the policy is out-dated and needs to be changed. —[[User:Danniesen|Danniesen]] [[User talk:Danniesen|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 01:44, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Edit war

Protecting this page for an hour to let the edit war cool down. Tardis:Don't over-wikify is explicit in saying one link per section, (unless the article has no sections, which does not apply in this case). User:Jack "BtR" Saxon's edits and reasoning are correct and should not be reverted. Shambala108 01:08, 29 December 2022 (UTC)
