Revision as of 06:07, 13 October 2007

While I do appreciate that you create video pages, it's not very helpful to create (almost) empty ones - because it looks like a page has been created, while there's actually no content.
If you don't intend to create a full-blown video page, please don't create one at all - it's less confusing for all of us. ;)
Thank you.

I needed a link for the blog but if you would rather I dont add a link then fine.--modelmotion 07:48, 11 October 2007 (CDT)
As said, in theory, I appreciate it...it's just that, once the page is created, the links turn blue all over the place, the page appears on recent changes, and everybody assumes the page is there and no one has to worry. It's quite confusing/surprising if you then visit the page later and have to realize it doesn't really exist. Potentially, this could delay the creation of a page for hours - simply because everybody thought there was already one.
