Cleaning up- reducing the overlinking will help heres some guidelines to follow in Wiki.

Overlinking and underlinking

   Main article: Wikipedia:Only make links that are relevant to the context 

Many articles are underlinked or overlinked. An article is likely to be considered underlinked if subjects are not linked that are necessary to the understanding of the article. An article may be overlinked if any of the following is true:

   * There are links to articles that are not likely to exist, or if they did would have little significance in the context of the article;
   * Low added-value items are linked without reason—such as 1995, 1980s, and 20th century.
   * A link for any single term is excessively repeated in the same article. Excessive typically means more than once for the same term in an article. The purpose of links is
to direct the reader to a new spot at a point where the reader is most likely to take a 

temporary detour due to a need for more information; this is usually on the first occurrence of the term, although the subsequent linking of an important item distant from its previous occurrence in an article may occasionally be appropriate in a table or in a subsection to which readers may jump directly, either within the article or via a section-link from another article.
