When some editors create red links with an uncertain spelling, others would simply not create a link or, worse yet, would choose not to write anything about the object. I think I even observed this about Aldriss I mentioned earlier. It should have gone into the "setting" field of the infobox of the story Legion of the Lost. But it wasn't added at first, and my guess is that no one was sure what to write so did not write anything. It is, I'm afraid, impossible to determine the number of names that are not present on the Wiki because of this.
