This is a sample. Once there are more citizens of this category, this one should be removed.
I put this on my talk page ages ago, and I linked it clearly, so kind and dilligent folks came along and turned every link blue. This is a good thing. It is exactly how things ought to work.
However, I did this before I had the category idea, and that's why there is one thing about this that is not exemplary: it's named "Lists." That's stupid. What is better is if folks name their red lists on their user talk pages in a way that indicates what kind of list it is. I really hope this idea takes off. Geogre 12:51, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
