--- Comment #14 from John Broughton <[email protected]> ---
This is an 80/20 issue - 80% of the value comes from fixing just the coloring
of internal wikilinks. Coloring of external links isn't critical. (There can be
significant time-delay in getting 404 or similar error codes for page
non-existence, as well as false negatives when a website is temporarily down.)
And of the internal wikilinks, most of the value is redlinks, some of the value
is disambiguation pages, and little of the value is stubs (which, again, are
subject to false positives, since article assessments aren't automated).

In short, the priority ought to be to code internal wikilinks that go to
non-existent pages (as red), and internal wikilinks that go to disambiguation
pages (as yellow, I think), and not to worry all that much about anything else.
