I'm new here, but I wanted to ask if someone can fix the link at the end to say the Church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints? I'm not sure how to without breaking the link, but it is incorrect and needs to be fixed. Additionally, The last comment is indeed correct about the reference to my religion, however the reference is not out of place and was a welcome sight. Thank you all for contributing so nicely. {{unsigned|SmallCorrector|17:17, 6 February 2024}}

:I checked where the "Mormon Missionary" link went to, in case it was a redirected page (I always prefer to send such links ''directly'' to the destination page). I found that ''they'' have called their own article by that name. An issue which you can always bring up on their own pages (assuming nobody has already). That page does start with the (I presume) proper and full nomenclature for the same, of course.

:Deciding that it would be dishonest to link to a "Mormon ..." page with the full/accurate name (it would look Ok until someone clicked on the link and finds themselves on the 'improperly named' page, and confusion could be had along the way), I hope you like my solution of appending the desired version, to cater for both those unfamiliar with the more formal term ''and'' those who deserve the right to expect it.
