Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, MartinPoulter (talk) 11:40, 18 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Commas

You might consider checking the Wikipedia Manual of Style on the use of commas in geographical references. It's here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style#Commas

It provides this example:

In geographical references that include multiple levels of subordinate divisions (e.g., city, state/province, country), a comma separates each element and follows the last element unless followed by terminal punctuation or a closing parenthesis. The last element is treated as parenthetical.

Correct: He traveled through North Carolina before staying in Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the night.

Incorrect: He traveled through North Carolina before staying in Chattanooga, Tennessee for the night.
