Have a question about how the TVTropes wiki works? No one knows this community better than the people in it, so ask away! Ask the Tropers is the page you come to when you have a question burning in your brain and the support pages didn't help.
It's not for everything, though. For a list of all the resources for your questions, click here. You can also go to this Directory thread

I think keeping the red link there is alright, so that if/when Creator.Willa Cather does get made, it'll just turn blue.
See also Administrivia.Red Link. While it does talk about links to works, I'm assuming red links to Creators are also okay.
SING TO ME, LEND ME THE SONG OF BLASPHEMYAs far as I know, those should be kept, same as with works; that way, when the creator's page does get created, we wouldn't need to look all around the wiki to cross-link their page.
Exception is when the "creator" has no tropable works, which makes creating the page about them pointless (people often tries to put in politicians that way, amongst other things).
(ninja'd, as always)
Edited by AazkaalI see. Is the other work page that shows up as red link in Excited Show Title should be kept too? The creator has only 2 works in overall.
Edit: I might have misconfused this meaning. I suppose that means Red links can stay red links if they're within rules. Let things be things.
Edit again: Well, looks like we've got our answers. At least we got some clarification here.
Edited by JustNormalMusicLover Nothing solves a day of depression better than a warm smile.I don't know why Administrivia.Red Link doesn't mention creators, because those are fine in addition to red links for works. I'll fix that.
Edit: Done, and I removed an outdated commented-out paragraph regarding how red links worked before the 1.8 update in 2018 (or didn't work, since there were some cases of links to nonexistent pages being blue before that update fixed that) since it should have been removed instead of commented out.

Hello, tropers.
This time I'm looking to ask for help for a page with a red link to a non-existent Creator page, in One of Ours. The name Willa Cather seems to show up as a red link, indicating that there is no page for the creator (as of written).
Further information when I click on "Related" shows that this isn't the only red link, it's also found in Excited Show Title along with another red link, O Pioneers!
I know that it is likely that something is off when you see a red link in any case, but what do I do for Creator without an existing page? It is not have even been cut off at some point, but rather, never existed in the first place.
