This is a list of dead-end pages (see the main listing for the date it was last updated). The pages contained on the list below are either not wikified (are plain text, not properly formatted, and so on), and/or they do not contain internal links to other articles. To assist, head to an article and read through it. Ensure that it follows Wikipedia:Guide to layout, and that it contains appropriate links to other articles in the Wikipedia. Once completed, remove the article from the list below. You should also make sure it is not a copyright violation or in need of other cleanup.

For basic information about adding links, see Wikipedia:How to edit a page. To find an article that's worth linking to, try doing a search, using the search box on the left-hand side of any Wikipedia page. Be sure to visit the article you find to make sure it's about what you think it's about, and that it's not a redirect or disambiguation page.

Please remove pages that are no longer deadend pages. If they just need proper formatting, tag them {{wikify}}. Dictionary definitions should be tagged {{Move to Wiktionary}}. If they have other problems, use the appropriate tag(s) from Wikipedia:Cleanup resources.

For articles on AFD, you can tag them {{wikify}} (in addition to the AFD notice) and remove them from this list. That way, if they survive deletion, they will still be tagged for fix-up. (They will not show up here on the next run if someone adds a single wikilink, but this may not indicate the article is fully wikified.) These pages should be de-listed because later updates to this page may overwrite annotations.

Regenerating this report

One way to update this report is from a Link Analysis Database using the SQL:

select concat( '*[[', art_title, ']]' )p
from art 
where links_from = 0
and locate( 'copyvio', art_text ) = 0
and art_len > 0
order by art_title;

Subsections must be created by hand.

Suggested improvements

Is it worth checking for external links only to generate a separate list of likely advertisements? - TB 10:09, Jun 9, 2004 (UTC)

If i made an php script that ran the code listed above, and auto formatted all this stuff would someone higher up install it to run nightly or so? --Meawoppl 19:41, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Listing

Some deadend articles have been tagged {{wikify}} and can be found in Category:Articles that need to be wikified instead.
