Red link
Template:BrokenLinksTemplate:NeedsWorkTemplate:VantaWhiteTemplate:AryanPage
Red links are a common phenomenon found on many websites. They usually appear because the linked page was deleted at some point and the page linking to it was never updated to reflect that. In that situation they are also called dead links.
On many wikis, they can be observed if a lazy editor adds non-existing links in the hope that someone else can make an appropriate page.
Some editors may be accustomed to other wikis that may not have the same templates and use them here, which leads to broken pages.
Other times they might be ESL or just dyslexic. This is most noticeable with file names, as file names can be long and might have a typo too.
They can also occur if a site links to something that is no longer accessible or has changed in content and no longer has whatever the original link was meant to take the user to; this is best known as Link Rot
Main article: Broken references
Broken references can be seen if the editor publishing the edit made a mistake.Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name
The reason why these happen, is because the editor put nothing in the reference{{[[Note|[E[[]]xample(s): Cite error: Invalid or <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content Cite error: The opening <ref> tag is malformed or has a bad name}}, which could cause errorsCite error: Invalid <ref> tag; refs with no name must have content or did a fuckup in the code[a].
Broken notes happen when nueditors forget to put the Notelist template on the adads|page [b].
