At the beginning of the month, 100% of the tallied Nickel profiles from Wikipedia had links back to those people's articles on Wikipedia, but none of the profiles of people listed on the Commonwealth War Graves Commission or the Veterans Legacy Memorial did. Now, 100% of profiles of people listed on all three sites have links back to those sites.
