not sure will I'm going wrong at ?
const languages = ['Python', 'JavaScript', 'PHP', 'Ruby', 'Java', 'C'];
const section = document.getElementsByTagName('section')[0];
// Accepts a language name and returns a wikipedia link
function linkify(language) {
const a = document.createElement('a');
const url = 'https://wikipedia.org/wiki/' + language + '_(programming_language)';
a.href = url;
return a;
}
// Creates and returns a div
function createDiv(language) {
const div = document.createElement('div');
const h2 = document.createElement('h2');
const p = document.createElement('p');

These links are been created in the function called linkify and then stored in the constant link. So you simply need to write...
div.appendChild(link);
I hope this helps :)
