	:::Understood. I actually had started by removing red links where they seemed to be excessive but Roni pointed out that it's best to leave them - red links are not really a problem - adding content is better. I agree with that now. So in the case, for example, of Brian Fargo, it's easy to find an external source, copy a tiny-but-relevant portion of it and add a page for quick, internal reference. Players who might not know anything about Brian Fargo thus can quickly see a brief intro to who is who, without opening an external source, but follow the external source too, if they want to read it all. At least that's how i think about this now but i'll conform to whatever standards this editing community chooses.
