Apply these rules only when the user authorises internal linking, except for links explicitly required by the style guide.

===7.1 Identifying linkable subjects===
Identify appropriate proper nouns and other historically significant subjects in both the original source text and the information panel. These may include monarchs, historical figures, places, institutions, works, dynasties, and significant historical or intellectual concepts.

Use editorial judgement. Link worthwhile subjects consistently without indiscriminately linking every occurrence of an ordinary word or phrase.

===7.2 Verify existing coverage===
Check Conservapedia to determine whether a relevant encyclopedic page exists.

===7.3 Canonical titles and piped links===
Choose canonical titles using historical accuracy, established naming conventions, contextual identification, and the need to distinguish subjects from similarly named people, places, works, and concepts.
Choose canonical titles using historical accuracy, established naming conventions, contextual identification, and the need to distinguish subjects from similarly named people, places, works, and concepts.
Use the surrounding context to distinguish people, places, and concepts with similar names. Do not guess when the identity cannot be established reliably. Flag genuinely ambiguous cases for human review.

===7.4 Missing articles and inferior existing titles===
If a relevant page does not exist, do not omit a worthwhile link merely because the destination is missing. Use the best-supported canonical encyclopedic title for the proposed article. This identifies missing coverage and facilitates future article creation.

Do not assume a rename is necessarily appropriate without considering the existing content and relevant naming conventions.

===7.5 Alternative names and redirects===
Identify common alternative names, spellings, and former article titles that may warrant redirects to the canonical article.

Include useful suggestions in the editorial review list. Do not claim that a redirect already exists unless its existence has been verified.

===7.6 Consistency and accuracy===
Link subjects consistently. Preserve the supplied wording and do not rewrite the primary source to accommodate preferred article titles.

==8. Public Domain Declaration==

==10. Editorial Review and Recommendations==
Alongside the finished wikitext, provide a concise editorial review list identifying proposed new articles, suggested renames or consolidations, potentially useful redirects, and unresolved naming questions.

Do not automatically rename existing articles, create redirects, create new pages, or otherwise alter Conservapedia. These are recommendations for the human editor to review and implement where appropriate.

==11. Final Verification Before Delivery==
Before presenting the finished page, check the entire output against the style guide and approved examples, component by component.

If a required element cannot be verified, resolve the issue from the available source material or identify the precise missing reference before proceeding. Do not silently substitute invented content.

==12. Output Format and Editorial Responsibility==
Return the complete raw MediaWiki wikitext as one continuous, copy-and-paste-ready code block wherever practicable.

The governing principle is exact compliance with the established style guide, not creative reconstruction. When the guide supplies a standard, reproduce it. When the source supplies text, preserve it. When information is missing, verify it or ask. Never invent a replacement and present it as compliant.

==Mandatory Internal-Link Audit==
Before completing any Original Source Project page, conduct a systematic internal-link audit of the entire page, including the introductory text, information panel, original source text, See Also section, and Index.
1. **People:** Identify and link relevant historical figures, authors, rulers, religious figures, and other named individuals. Examples include Eusebius, Tatian, Constantine the Great, and Cyril of Jerusalem.
2. **Places and geography:** Identify and link relevant countries, regions, cities, islands, and other geographical entities, including every appropriate place name in the information panel. Examples include Egypt, Jerusalem, Rome, and other locations named in the source or metadata.
3. **Historical entities:** Identify and link empires, states, institutions, councils, religious movements, and other significant historical entities. Examples include the Roman Empire and the Greek Empire.
4. **Works and concepts:** Link appropriate named books, biblical passages, historical events, theological terms, and other subjects that have relevant encyclopedic coverage.
5. **Repeated occurrences:** Do not automatically assume that linking the first occurrence of a name is sufficient. Review subsequent occurrences and link them where doing so is useful and consistent with this project's linking policy. Apply the same standard to comparable names and entities throughout the page.
6. **Information panel:** Audit every metadata field and every Related Pages entry for appropriate internal links. Do not leave linkable proper nouns unlinked merely because they appear in a table or sidebar.
7. **Verification:** Use accurate existing article titles wherever they can be established. Preserve the source's original wording through piped links when necessary. Do not invent article titles or silently substitute an unrelated destination. Record uncertain destinations in the separate editorial review.
8. **Final quality check:** Re-read the completed page specifically to find omitted links. Compare comparable passages and lists of people or places for inconsistent treatment. A page is not ready for delivery until this audit has been completed.
The purpose is to improve reader navigation, connect primary sources to relevant encyclopedic coverage, and strengthen the meaningful internal-link relationships described in the SEO Trust Signals guidance. Linking must remain contextually relevant and must not distort the original text.
