I am writing an article about the (very rich) history of the Kurfürstendamm, an important street of Berlin. This article is doomed to be quite long (more or less 20.000 signs). It would be quite easy to split it into several articles linked together by an over-page containing a concise narrative of the same subject and links to each of them. Would it be advisable to do that? Which are the best tools that I could use for this purpose?
Wikipedia contains already an article about the Kurfürstendamm, one part of which is a brief history of the street. Would it be advisable to insert there the links to my small articles?
Please help me with... Your advice about the best practice to work with and the names of the relevant Help-pages.

Hello, Piero Caracciolo! I'm CASSIOPEIA. I have replied to your question about a submission at the WikiProject Articles for Creation Help Desk. CASSIOPEIA( talk) 08:33, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
Hello Piero, you asked me about what you should change in order for your history article to get approved. Here's my opinion: Whilst you did clean it up a bit, it stills reads like a advertisement. The lead is written like a promo; you should rewrite it in order to make it meet WP:NPOV. The first section is okay; keep that as it is.
The Bismarck’s Project section should be slightly rewritten to make it neutral. The social and economic reasons for the Kurfürstendamm’s success' section seems okay, however slightly reword the 3rd paragraph so it seems neutral.
The 'Interval: Kurfürstendamm’s route' section is fine. The section about The Wilhelmine period (from creation to World War I) is where the main problem is, especially the lead. Please rewrite the lead, and please adhere to WP:NPOV whilst doing it. The 'Café des Westens' section seems fine, however remove the enormous from the cabaret sentence. The 'Fun and Games' section seems fine. The World War I section is fine. All the rest is fine, just some changes that I'll make for convenience. Even though the article does have some neutrality problems, your article is at-least a C-class, so well done. Any more questions? Then don't hesitate in asking me! Have a nice day! In Memoriam A.H.H. What, you egg?. 17:56, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for your detailed comments. I'm learning much. I think a few changes will be enough, in order to make my article comply WP:NPOV. But there is bit of information that I need, that is: what is the meaning of "lead" in a text? Piero Caracciolo ( talk) 19:04, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
