- Images appropriately licensed or have a NFU template
- universities of Oxford and Cambridge Capitalize universities
- Link the colony of Nigeria in the lede, colonial service, district commissioner
- Nicely done--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 12:45, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- I'm afraid I disagree on the capitalisation of "university" here: we would capitalise if we were using it as part of a title (e.g. "he studied at the University of Oxford", but here it's simply a common noun (so "Heslop studied at Corpus Christi College", but "the college cats of Corpus Christi and Trinity"). Capitalising would imply that there's an entity called "The Universities of Oxford and Cambridge", which there isn't: writers of Heslop's time did write about "The Universities", usually meaning Oxbridge, but that's very archaic now.
- Linked Colonial Service and district commissioner, but MOS:OVERLINK advises against linking major examples of places and countries, of which I think Nigeria is one. UndercoverClassicist (talk) 15:26, 21 July 2023 (UTC)
- I think that Wikipedians grossly overestimate the geographic literacy of the average reader, especially Americans.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 09:06, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
- I'm sure you're right, but the MOS as it currently stands is pretty clear on this one. UndercoverClassicist (talk) 10:01, 22 July 2023 (UTC)
- Fair enough.--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 08:28, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
