Another thing that can be done for links that do not exist on the
translation, is to create the red link on the translated article and
annotate it with the Wikidata Q-ID of the corresponding source link. So
that when the article is finally created, all annotated red links can be
turn into blue links.

That will allow us to know which concept a given redlink is about and
suggest a user to translate the article from a language in which the
content is available.
