This discussion strikes me as very odd. The argument that {{u|LongTermWikiUser}} seems to be making is that external links are preferable to internal Wikipedia links because they are more stable and reliable. I do not have any idea where that claim comes from or what it's grounded in. Certainly Wikipedia has more control over its internal pages: while Wikipedia articles might get deleted or rearranged, they can also be undeleted and reverted. There is no such guarantee for external links. All in all, there does not seem to be any reason here to believe that the [[APL (programming language)]] article should be an exception to the well-established [[WP:External links]] guideline. External links should remain in their own section whenever possible. [[User:Tim Pierce|—Tim Pierce]] ([[User talk:Tim Pierce|talk]]) 02:32, 6 April 2015 (UTC)
:{{u|Tim Pierce}} Nothing odd about it at all. Wikipedia deleted some NINE internal web page links hence they are now red-line links in the article. External links have to be used in places where Wikipedia obtusely deletes its internal links.[[User:LongTermWikiUser|LongTermWikiUser]] ([[User talk:LongTermWikiUser|talk]]) 16:32, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
