Malcolm X is repeated twice on List of featured biographies[edit]

Malcolm X entry is repeated twice at positions 19 and 27. Saviourofthe (talk) 01:37, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Saviourofthe: Well spotted! Fixed. -- John of Reading (talk) 08:35, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

IMPORTANT[edit]

It's a pity that there is so much italic confusion in the articles "Via Aemilia" and "Via Flaminia". The question is: should they be written in italics? Both articles are both italicised and not. Consistency in the same article is very important (remember, if you decide for italics or not, to do the same with all the other pages that use these terms, otherwise there is no point).

See MOS:FOREIGNITALIC: non-English words should be italicised using template:Language (for screen readers). Except of course for loan words that have been assimilated. Thus Via Aemilia, Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Except if you go to Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré, practically none of it complies. Sigh. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 19:48, 18 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
