The Khinasi page has a link for [[Islands of the East|Sahirde el-Mahare]], but the Islands of the East page has a separate link for Sahirde el-Mahare, which is parenthetically described as the Golden Archipelago, and the Golden Archipelago has its own link further down on the page.

It looks like we have three links for a place and a region that includes that place.

Typically, if Sahirde el-Mahare has a page, references should refer to that page, not somewhere else. If we want to identify both pages, we can do that. The Golden Archipelago link seems entirely superfluous since it is identified as the same as Sahirde el-Mahare.

While it might be useful to build a referer from Golden Archipelago to Sahirde el-Mahare, having a link for each on the same page makes them appear to have two different pages. Generally, only the first use of a term should be linked.

We should decide what we want to call the place, either Sahirde el-Mahare or Golden Archipelago and use that as the standard, only referring to the other term once for clarity.

Sahirde el-Mahare. Golden Archipelago should point to that one.

I figure that 'Sahirde' is the Khinasi term and 'golden' is the Anuirean one - the empire died a long time ago, so go with the native name...
