Wikilinki's
It is common Wikietiquette for the person who puts in the link (weather internal, interwiki, or external), to "test" the link and make sure 1) it works; 2) it goes the intended place. It is also common courtesy not to create re-directs. You want the reader to have a seamless transition while reading. If they get directed to the wrong place, 1) they get frustrated, and 2) Wikipedia loses credibility. If there is an article called: The Untouchables about the 1959 TV series you link to that. If there is not, then, yes, you can make a dead-red link, but you try to avoid these.

If a credible contributor adds a link, they test that link. I may create a whole new article, and in it put in 30 Wikilinkis, and I may get tired and forget to test each and every one of them, but I try. And, if I am just editing an article, and just adding a link or two, I ALWAYS test it. Remember, while doing your work and keep the reader in mind, make it easy for them to 1) get the info, 2) make Wikipedia a trusted resource. And if you come across mistake links, like they one they put in Robert Redford, you fix it. Thanks.
