[edit] Hello, I'm AlanM1. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you unlinked one or more redlinks. Often redlinks can be helpful, so we don't remove them just because they are red. They help improve Wikipedia by attracting editors to create needed articles.
In addition, clicking on the "What links here" special link (in the Wikipedia Toolbox at left) on a missing article shows how many—and which—articles depend on that article being created. This can help prioritize article creation. Redlinks are useful! Please only remove a redlink if you are pretty sure that it is to a non-notable topic and not likely ever to be created. Please see WP:LINK for the complete linking guideline. —[AlanM1 (talk)]— 16:00, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
- And, you have been identifying some of your edits as minor when they are not. See Help:Minor edit. David notMD (talk) 20:26, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
Okay, thanks for telling me. I've always thought as red links as annoying, and when I became an editor, I didn't know that they actually served a purpose. (Though I don't remember getting rid of any important Redlinks. The most important Redlinks I've come across would only have a stub article.) And I'm sorry if I accidentally noted some of my edits as minor when they weren't. From now on, I will make sure to be diligent about properly recognizing the status of my edits and not erasing Redlinks that might attract attention to the possible creation of an important article.
