Hi! <span class="plainlinks">[{{canonicalurl:User:Bluescreenofdeath/Balance issues comment|diff=106577}} I've taken the liberty]</span> of turning the link in your document into an internal wikilink, rather than an external one. There are various advantages to using internal links whenever possible and I didn't see a need for this specific link to be external, so I hope you don't mind. —[[User:bcode|bcode]] <sup>[[User talk:bcode|talk]] | [[Special:EmailUser/Bcode|mail]]</sup> 07:28, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
