 ==== Link - going to a non-existent article  ====
-*'''Problem''': Link going to a non-existent page but the link is in <font color="blue">blue</font> not <font color="red">red</font>.
+*'''Problem''': Link going to a non-existent page, but the link is in <font color="blue">blue</font> not <font color="red">red</font>.
 *'''Cause''': Check to see if a space is missing between the URL and the name of the link:
-::<nowiki>[https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Main_PageFamilySearch Wiki Main Page]</nowiki> which link looks like this:
+::<nowiki>[https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Main_PageFamilySearch Wiki Main Page]</nowiki>
+::The link looks like this:
 :::[https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/Main_PageFamilySearch Wiki Main Page].
-The link should be ''FamilySerach WIki Main Page'' not ''Wiki Main Page''. Because their is no space between the word FamilySearch and the ''last word of the URL'' the name of the link is ''Wiki Main Page'' instead of "FamilySearch Wiki Main Page." The result is clicking on "Wiki Main Page" leads nowhere.
+The link should be ''FamilySearch Wiki Main Page'' not ''Wiki Main Page''. The name of the link is ''Wiki Main Page'' instead of ''FamilySearch Wiki Main Page'' because there is no space between '''Page''' (the ''last word'' of the URL)  and '''FamilySearch''' (the ''first word'' in the name of the link). The result is clicking on "Wiki Main Page" leads nowhere.
