I added a link to the first of the essays, from "The South-Sea House" to South Sea Bubble. This was removed, with the edit summary that it does not link to the essay. I think it is unlikely that Wikipedia will soon support an article on each individual essay, nor do I see that level of detail as a priority. On the other hand, I believe it provides a service to our readers to show them what the essays refer to. I could understand if the objection was to the link itself, preferring South Sea Company to South Sea Bubble, but how does it improve the article to have neither? I will be bold, and re-add, and will link another essay to the eponymous Christ's Hospital. (Could the reader be expected to guess that this is not a hospital, but the famous and influential Bluecoat School?) Perhaps many more such links would be possible; I haven't examined all of the essays. I think links such as these help build the encyclopedia. If anyone wishes to remove these links, please explain how you think their omission improves the article. BrainyBabe ( talk) 19:35, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
