Shouldn't paper.js be on this list? Is there a reason it has been left off? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/70.61.199.35|70.61.199.35]] ([[User talk:70.61.199.35|talk]]) 12:57, 10 April 2013 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Red links/non-article links ==

I have for the second time removed all red links and non-article entries from this list. Please do not add any to the article. There are a few reasons for this:

* The list is a list of '''notable''' JavaScript libraries, and as such if a library is notable it should have an article: create the article first

* [[WP:REDYES]] says "Create red links everywhere they are relevant to the context" but the list supplies no context, as would be provided by a paragraph containing the link, or e.g. by the list being in a table or one of a set ([[List of Tour de France winners]] for example).

* [[WP:REDNOT]] says not to create them in navigation sections such as See also sections, but this is pretty much all see also type links

* most importantly readers should find links useful: red links are frustrating to users who expect the link to navigate somewhere, or if not the linking article to supply enough context so they can work out what should be there
