:Undead and empyrean will most likely get a letter from home. It took them a few months to add one for the shadows I believe, but they did eventually get one. It doesn't really matter either way to me, we can leave the links there for when they (hopefully) get added, or removed them until they are available. --[[User:An Adventurer|An Adventurer]] 08:13, 3 February 2011 (EST)
::*I vote for removal obviously. ''':-)''' Red links mean either existing data needs to be collected or there is an error that needs correcting. BUT if linking to imaginary items that do not and may never exist is policy that's okay too. Can we at a minimum create a [[:Category:Stub|'''Stub Page''']] for such things? Maybe with a quick note of ''Future item place holder''. If there is a stub page for this fictitious information then visitors are not presented with ugly red dead end links. Such a stub also lets helpers know not to spend time researching non-existent information.

  • I vote for removal obviously. :-) Red links mean either existing data needs to be collected or there is an error that needs correcting. BUT if linking to imaginary items that do not and may never exist is policy that's okay too. Can we at a minimum create a Stub Page for such things? Maybe with a quick note of Future item place holder. If there is a stub page for this fictitious information then visitors are not presented with ugly red dead end links. Such a stub also lets helpers know not to spend time researching non-existent information. Malacon 11:27, 3 February 2011 (EST) (...and I note that the stub pages need cleaning up too lol)
