Hi!

[The style guide](https://wiki.musicbrainz.org/How_to_write_Good_Critiquebrainz_Reviews) doesn’t mention links. Is there any preferred way of linking to other albums, artists, specific tracks, etc? I’d imagine linking to the full MusicBrainz URL is preferred? I just wanted to check there wasn’t anything fancy in place like e.g. just linking to the GID and CritiqueBrainz’s parser automatically works out the best URL to infer from it, or anything like that..?

Thanks!

I don’t know whether CB has anything fancy in place to handle links to other entities. I’d probably link to their CritiqueBrainz page when relevant (e.g., artists, places) and MusicBrainz when not (e.g., areas, instruments).
