[edit] How do I use this list?

Pick any suggestion for an alternate target for a red link from the list below. If the suggested target is sensible, go ahead and fix it. This can be done by either changing the originating article or, if what links here shows several other red links pointing to the same missing article, by adding a redirect. Do this by putting

#REDIRECT ''[[target article]]'' {{R from alternate spelling}}

all on the first line of the new article.

To keep the list tidy, remove suggestions that were correct and have been dealt with. Remove sections that no longer contain any lines. If you couldn't repair the link and the suggestion is incorrect, strike it out and add a note saying why. For example:

These will be added to the project's exception list before the list is regenerated, ensuring that they won't be suggested again.
