Hmm... Potholes are themselves unnescessary, usually, and these ones are more informative than most...

Looks like business as usual for comicbook fans. Notice how line 19 had a Pothole to the Comicbook.Magneto page before the change.

Link to TRS threads in project mode here.

That's also a problem with SCP Foundation, and when I asked about it here the answer was just to remove the pothole to the character page. For some reason, many tropers feel the need to link to Characters.SCP Foundation whenever they mention one of the SCPs on a trope page. Especially bad cases will link to the specific sub-page that includes the SCP in question.

^ - Interesting. If there were pages for specific skips, then the linking makes sense. As is, it doesn't.

I think it should be put in Wick Namespace Migration, through the Locked Pages thread.
