:::Through the [[Special:WantedPages|Wanted Pages]]. One of the most helpful tools. Not every one on there must be removed: most of them indicate that there's a page to be made at that title. But if you see a link to {{red link|Krokodile (Pokémon)}} or {{red link|Treeecko (Pokémon)}} or something like that, you can click the (←links) thing to check where it comes from and fix it. Here's another piece of advice: check all your links before saving your page. In fact, use its neighbour, the Preview button. He's far more helpful than his mean neighbour the Save Page button. :P No, seriously, the Preview button and most of the [[Special:SpecialPages|Special Pages]] are your best friends. Learn how to use 'em good and your 'Pedia life will be much easier. Also, fixing all those redlinks helps you with getting [[Bulbapedia:Top contributors of the month|here]] much faster, if you know what I mean. *points at September, 2011, 8th place* ;) [[User:TyraniThrone|<span style="color:green">Tyrani</span>]][[User talk:TyraniThrone|<span style="color:brown">Throne</span>]] 16:20, 20 February 2012 (UTC) | :::Through the [[Special:WantedPages|Wanted Pages]].

::::Believe me,I've previewed numerous times but it doesn't show you the redlink if it is on the box because it's colored.So I've previewed and looked again and again and I thought it was alright.Well,I still don't get it how to use the wanted page.--[[User:DJWolfy|<span style="color:Blue;">--'''DJ'''</span>]][[User talk:DJWolfy|<span style="color:Blue;">'''Wolfy'''</span>]] 18:26, 20 February 2012 (UTC) | ::::Believe me,I've previewed numerous times but it doesn't show you the redlink if it is on the box because it's colored.So I've previewed and looked again and again and I thought it was alright.Well,I still don't get it how to use the wanted page.--[[User:DJWolfy|<span style="color:Blue;">--'''DJ'''</span>]][[User talk:DJWolfy|<span style="color:Blue;">'''Wolfy'''</span>]] 18:26, 20 February 2012 (UTC) | ||
:::::Alright, I believe you. Just hover with your cursor above all the links you made to check if it is an existing page. And as how to use the Wanted Pages-page? Well, in my opinion, it is pretty straightforward, but I'll try to explain. When you're at the page, you see different redlinks. The top 100 or something all have multiple links, so they obviously need to be there. But if you go all the way down, to the end of the list, you'll often find misspellings and fan-made locations/Trainer Classes etc. Next to the link, you'll see a button like this: (←links) Click it to see which page links to the redlink. You can go to the page, find the link and change it into the link it's supposed to be. If you're done with that, make sure that the redlink is gone, and go on your way! If you still don't understand, you can also forget about it and leave the redlinks to the grammar n**is like me. ;) Hope I helped enough!
