Disambiguation pages
Please note that disambiguation pages like RDL are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:


 * Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
 * Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
 * Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
 * Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
 * Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
 * Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory

 * I did not select Red, it came up red and I thought that was because it was a new entry which required review. Ill read the guides wherever they are Tbodine88 (talk) 11:07, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
 * The DAB instructions are at Disambiguation and Manual of Style/Disambiguation pages, if you're interested. The basic idea is that DAB pages are an index to information that already exists in Wikipedia articles - there shouldn't be any new information or references because those things should be in articles instead. If an article uses a red link, then it's perfectly appropriate to list it on a DAB page, as long as a link to that article (the blue link) is also included to show where that information exists. You might wish to write a paragraph on Device Modeling Language and add it to an appropriate article. Then it could be added back to RDL. Though you would probably need to include a reference that is more reliable than Github. Leschnei (talk) 12:48, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
