Using U.S. (or US) vs using United States in full
Hi, I may be wrong, but per
{{u|WikiWikiWayne}} {Talk
- Is this the relevant sentence from the MOS? "When the United States is mentioned with one or more other countries in the same sentence, U.S. or US may be too informal, especially at the first mention or as a noun instead of an adjective (France and the United States, not France and the US)." If so, how does it apply in the instances occurring in the article? --Bsherr (talk) 23:52, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. I was thinking as here, for example. Cheers!
{{u|WikiWikiWayne}} {Talk}
00:00, 6 February 2023 (UTC)- In that instance, it is being used in the adjective form, it's a subsequent (not a first) mention of the U.S. Department of Defense, and it's not in a series of other unabbreviated countries. I would think it ought to be abbreviated there, no? If not, I'm not sure when it would ever be appropriate to abbreviate. What do you think? --Bsherr (talk) 00:03, 6 February 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. I was thinking as here, for example. Cheers!
