Summary: Setting off links to pages without content
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: Special pages
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
The following issue has actually been raised at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals).
If technically possible and feasible I propose setting off links to pages which
may exist but do not provide content. For instance, sometimes a redirect is
orphaned, i.e. no pages link to it. Nevertheless, the toolbox on the redirect
page provides the common "What links here" link linking to the corresponding
page, on which the user gets to know that no pages link to the redirect page.
Instead, the "What links here" link ought to appear differently from other
links (e.g. in another color) as is the case with those links on the left on
title pages in the IMDb which link to pages without content (e.g.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0960864). Thus, one would see that no pages link to
a page, without having to click on a hyperlink.
