Here is an example of some list items on “wanted pages” that are actually legitimate, and do warrant page creation:

<small>

* Euzenius‏‎ (3 links)

* James Plamondon‏‎ (3 links)

Line 14:

Line 15:

* LIRP-3‏‎ (3 links)

* List model‏‎ (3 links)

</small>

Here is an example of some list items that are machine-generated noise and should be ignored:

<small>

* 4L 4s (3/1-equivalent)‏‎ (5 links)

* 4L 6s (3/1-equivalent)‏‎ (5 links)

* 50/23‏‎ (5 links)

* 501edo‏‎ (5 links)

* 50th-octave temperaments‏‎ (5 links)

* 51/20‏‎ (5 links)

* 512/405‏‎ (5 links)

* 517edo‏‎ (5 links)

* 52/31‏‎ (5 links)

* 52/41‏‎ (5 links)

* 520edo‏‎ (5 links)

Of course, you can still create one of those machine-wanted pages if you actually do have something to say about it, but do not create a blank page with nothing but info boxes, as this only creates more work for editors ~~tidying it all up,~~ without ~~actually~~ adding ~~useful human-written~~ information for readers.

Of course, you can still create one of those machine-wanted pages if you actually do have something to say about it, but do not create a blank page with nothing but info boxes, as this only creates more work for editors without adding new information for readers.

An easier and more rewarding alternative to browsing “wanted pages” is to instead check out the pages [[Xenharmonic Wiki:Things to do]] and [[Wikifuture]], which list tasks that really do need to be done.
