Help:Red links

Links on ArmchairGM are either blue or red. Blue or Red. (Those aren't links, so don't bother clicking them.)

Blue links take you to the page you expected to go to (hopefully). But red links bring you to a big blank box with about a dozen -- actually, 11 -- little buttons above it.

There's a good reason for that: the link you clicked on goes to a page that does not yet exist. This could be due to a few reasons, but we'll highlight two.

First, maybe the page does exist, but the link is in error. Basically, instead of someone typing "New York Mets," they accidentally typed "New Yark Mets." That'd give you a red link. You can fix it by editing the referring page (click the back button).

Second, and more likely, the page does not exist at all yet. But it probably should. Our suggestion? Start writing! Remember, ArmchairGM is an open-content website. That means anyone -- you, your dog, even your imaginary friend (with his imaginary keyboard) -- can write an article. So, pick off where someone else left off.

Read more about creating pages at that link (about five words back), which we promise, is blue.
