Duell, Sloan and Pearce
[edit]I have reverted your addition of a comma to two instances of the name "Duell, Sloan and Pearce" in the article. Please note that "Duell, Sloan and Pearce", with only one comma, is the name of the company as well as the title of the article. While MOS:SERIAL, covers the use of commas in lists, "Duell, Sloan and Pearce" is not a list, and so should not include a comma after "Sloan" even if serial commas are used elsewhere in the article.

- Hi Donald, this is well noted. Thank you for checking and will make sure to take note of this for future edits. Noal.bin (talk) 09:50, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Non-breaking spaces
[edit]Hello, thanks for your edit to Sigal Music Museum, but please do not remove non-breaking spaces. They're often used in Wikipedia to make sure numbers and things like measurement units are formatted correctly. Graham87 (talk) 15:05, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi! This is the first time I'm encountering this non-breaking spaces. Thank you so much for pointing this out. I'll make sure not to remove these in the future edits. Apologies for the mistake :) Noal.bin (talk) 12:58, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
