Ditto Mgm. I'm not worried about the 800k articles
we'd have to change -
we got through categorising fine, didn't we?
Also, it's eminently bot-suitable. One of the first things Kate did on
en: was run a bot to change "External link", "External Links" and
"External Link" to "External links".
What I'm concerned about is
that, as he said, external links != further reading. Maybe we could
change "further reading" to "other resources"?
Or maybe we could leave it alone! I don't at all see the problem with
"References" and "External links". (And some articles, e.g. [[Xenu]],
actually have "References" and "Sources" and "External
links".) I think
the current convention is fine.
