Hi Shugal -
You recently wiki linked "spleen on the platelets page: I have reverted it and I wanted to explain why. My own criteria for an IL are that it is a word unfamiliar to the general reader and therefore in need of a definition or further explanation; or that link provides further information on the linked topic not covered in the primary article.
I believe most readers know what a spleen is; and after reading the page on spleen I found no mention of platelets there, or any function of the spleen that bears on platelets.
If you disagree with my reversion, it is my understanding the word should not be altered pending discussion on Platelet talk page. If we cannot agree on a solution there after discussion, it should be submitted to the third party for resolution. I hope that is a satisfactory procedure to you.
Regards -
