Hear hear! -Ad Orientem (talk) 02:03, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I have found that certain mass creation to populate certain feature list candidates have harmed the encyclopedia far more than they have helped, but I have never seen such a cogent summary of my thoughts on the issue. Red links need to exist! Circéus (talk) 03:26, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hear hear! Mr. Milburn has written the op-ed I have been procrastinating about for years. Thank you, J Milburn! :) I routinely add redlinks in my content, and lament the widespread erythrophobia on ENWP. Happily, they are still more welcome on other wikis I'm active on.

Well done.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 04:20, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Erythrophobia is more common in some projects (ca:), less in others (es:). I need red links to check progress on large projects. When they are replaced with plain black text, I'm lost. B25es (talk) 06:33, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
