Most seem ''quite'' relevant. Especially [[Elizabeth Ford]] which was removed. And how is someone from, say, Japan, or mostly white European countries going to understand [[desegregation busing]] as common?

Most are irrelevant. For example, when Ford was young his father owned a [[paint]] factory. "desegregation busing" is an odd usage that somebody at Wikipedia invented. [[User:Richard Jensen|Richard Jensen]] 04:01, 7 November 2007 (CST) | |||

Red links
It is mysterious to me why RJ would remove carefully placed redlinks on major topics, given CZ:Article_Mechanics#Do_link_to_nonexistent_articles. Stephen Ewen 02:44, 7 November 2007 (CST)
- lots of links are useless. Links to common words should not be linked --they distract the readers and are no help if hey actually click there (for example I deleted useless links to "paint" "adoption" "law practice "community work", "veto," "secretary of state" foreign affairs, Michigan, etc. I am following the CZ policy: Therefore, there is a general (not infallible) rule for determining whether a link is appropriate or helpful: If our target audience would find that the article linked-to illuminates the present article, then we should link to it.
