Trying to explain as good as I can. Red links are broken links. For example there is a link to a John on a MC relationship section. Then John gets a last name and his page is renamed. Or John turns out to be a misc character and is moved to the respective page, his page is deleted. The link on MC is broken since it still links to a page named John that no longer exists and is therefore shown in red. I simply call them red links. Most of the broken links on the official pages are fixed by some of us immediately after the change. But sometimes it happens that some broken links are overseen and remain for days or weeks.

Sometimes several pages are renamed or deleted in a time I am absent and I cannot keep track of all the names of pages. Sometimes the change is a ":" added between words. So now and then I go to the page I linked to and check if there are any edits I missed and if there are any red links in the middle of a page.

For example I found three red links yesterday that still linked to Frank from LoveHacks who was moved probably weeks ago to the misc characters page. I didn't know I have to search for Frank. I found out that I have to search for him by looking at the page. The page tells me which names I have to search for. When I started searching for red links the page was rather short and it took me a minute to find them. Today it takes a lot more time to check because there are so many red links in comments, threads like these etc and somewhere in between are the ones I search for.
