Special:Wanted Pages is meant to be empty. If the wanted pages/redlinks exist someone can find them, click them and accidentally create a page that becomes either useless in terms of information, and thus pointless to have, or the creator of such a page could decide to make it into say... a link to a porn site. Both are relatively easy to revert - just delete the page created and possibly delete the revision too, an inconvenience at best, but when the redlink still exists the page can be created again, and again, and again. Not everyone looks at the "this page was previously deleted" message that displays, especially a new editor who has no idea about what should and should not be included in the wiki. The same goes for Special:WantedFiles. Essentially, redlinks are asking for vandalism.

And for what it's worth, Special:WantedPages also led me to discover that most of your images are unlicensed. There was a blog about image licensing on central somewhere. I can find it if you're interested? Probably something important considering most of these pictures are copyright to the BBC.. 09:32, April 20, 2012 (UTC)
