As a personal hobby I like to go around the wiki burninating red links (through the magically useful Wanted Pages thingie). Problem is, most of those red links are in User pages and in User talk pages/archives. I don't like to go around editing other user's stuff without permission so I ask the community: Do you mind if I edit your user pages and/or user talk pages and archives to get rid of those red links so they don't appear in the Wanted pages list?

Don't get rid of red links! Those represent articles that need to be made, and might prod a user to make them. Removing red links can also create walled gardens. The exceptions to this are articles that will never be made, incorrect/dup links and broken redirect links.

That's what I meant, there are red links to articles that were either deleted (like Maleficent's group) or will never exist (like some keyblade abilities that are covered in the Kingdom Hearts Abilities article) those are the red links I meant, obviously there are pages that need to be created (like all the new Heartless and gears) but I think I'll know the difference when I stumble upon one. There are also links to pages like Final Fantasy IV or Job System or links that are misspelled and were never corrected, those are the links I mean to correct by either linking them to the correct place or sending them to the FF wikia.

As for walled gardens... what is that >.>?
