- @MOS:DABRED is incorrect and that we should allow in the list every item for everything that resolves to ATV, regardless of notability or if it ever will have the likelihood of an article? Ok then, I give up. Lists will fill with all kinds of redlink crap to non-notable names. For the record, I strongly disagree. Go ahead. Good luck maintaining the encyclopedia. -- Alexf(talk) 01:15, 13 January 2017 (UTC)]
- User:Alexf DABRED is correct - a red is OK as long as it has a blue which includes the red in that article. It's maybe about 1-5% of dab entries but they are allowed. This is documented more succinctly at Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts. Dabs just follow the articles, so if there's needless reds in articles then suggest normal editing to deal with them/remove them, then mirroring that in the dab would be normal procedure I'd say.

- If you know a redlink will never become an article, you should just cut tot the chase and delete it. Even if there is a guideline that hypothetically could allow the redlink to remain temporarily until such time as other editors are aware of the fact that it will never become an article.

WP:DABRED says it's permissible. It says this is the only circumstance when you may have a redlink in a dab page. It doesn't say you must keep the redlink in the dab page if other articles point to the redlink, and it doesn't say you must delete all examples of the implausible redlink before you delete it from a dab page. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:34, 13 January 2017 (UTC)]
