Compromise
Suggestion: Flag the Talk: pages corresponding to wanted pages with the template, and leave the main namespace alone. --Peter Farago 19:32, 15 December 2006 (CST)
- Well, that would seem to be one solution, at any rate. Still we may want to work out a formal policy on how to clean out the erroneous entries in Special:Wantedpages and how to promote the task listing better, as well. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 21:23, 17 December 2006 (CST)
My Input
Personally, I've never taken a look at the tasks page, and the task page doesn't seem to be too advertised. I think the red links are useful because you can see that someone wants to link there, but there's nothing to link to. --BklynBruzer 23:44, 16 December 2006 (CST)
- The reason that leaving red links is that if someone, like me, spells something incorrectly in red links, and someone creates an article, there is one more unneeded linking system. I rather have a stable simple page of yellow, than red. If someone was going to add info, they click on the yellow link anyway. Shane (T - C - E) 00:05, 17 December 2006 (CST)
