- 18:0118:01, 23 October 2022 diff hist +2,612 Domestic violence substituted "DV" with "domestic violence" - the abbreviation is not common for everyone, but Wikipedia should be easily accessible to all (esp. an article like this one). Abbreviations make it harder to read for no good reason (Wikipedia has enough space for using no abbreviations). Another editor may re-write some sentences for style because of occasional excessive use of the term "DV / domestic violence"... but that is likewise true when using abbreviations.
