Majority of my editing here is "from the real world" articles. These are articles like, say, hospital, pub or book.

What you might not understand is that, when I (or someone else) create cave, I'm going to first use a special tool called "WhatLinksHere" to gather all the information. No longer among that is the bit about the TARDIS being in a cave here.

Which is just why I have to search the word 'cave', and try to get info that way. The problem there is with pages like pond, which I haven't created yet due to the difficulty of finding any info on it (namely that Amy search for 'Pond' will bring up any instance of Amy). If people redlinked to pond, it would be much easier.

You also have to consider that I might not think to create cave or IQ (I'm positive there's been quite a bit of "I have an IQ of...", so lots of info to create a good page) without any redlinks to them. Well... Those two are on my list, but it's a really long list.

Anyway, to answer your question specifically, it's almost always good to have the redlinks. If you can't determine whether or not something deserves a page, either leave the redlinks or search for similar pages on this wiki.

Pages 'not linked directly to the Whoniverse' are a huge percentage of our articles. You'd really be surprised how in-depth an article cave can potentially be.
