On the list

edit

of architecture firms elsewhere we do not allow red links. We define "notable" as being "already has an article in wikipedia." I think it is a good idea but an not inclined to start slashing & burning until posting here. I will start removing red links unless I hear an "I say, old chap, that's not how we do things here."

It's usually the rule of thumb with lists of people (WP:LISTPEOPLE), but not with other lists of things such as companies. Looking back at the edit history (October 2012 seems such a long time ago) I remember it was me who checked through the redlinks and made a judgement on whether they were notable - there are some online sources I've added. In all cases, I think, the redlinks are long-standing reputable practices. They just need some additional offline sources discovered before articles could be written. There are many notable things out there that don't have Wikipedia articles yet! Sionk (talk) 03:04, 25 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
I have crossed paths with you enough so that your opinion is good enough for me. This is why I've gotten into the habit of asking first. My resources on British architectural history will probably not produce many stubs, but I will look and see. Carptrash (talk) 03:55, 25 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
