Actually, to be more precise:

*My opinion is that visitors to tiddlywiki.com should not encounter 
meaningless links to non-existent tiddlers.*

There are a few legitimate cases of missing links such as the one at the 
bottom of [[HistoryMechanism <https://tiddlywiki.com/#HistoryMechanism>]] 
that shows how to configure TW by creating a specifically named config 
tiddler.

All those other links to nowhere:

   - waste a visitor's time
   - are confusing
   - give the impression of carelessness/incompleteness
   - soon get irritating

None of these above effects & reactions reflect the sophistication of the 
software, and the dedication put in to creating and documenting it.

Neither does it do justice to the vibrant community supporting and enjoying 
using it.


The website is TiddlyWiki's foremost showcase window to attract, entice, 
captivate.


Seasoned programmers & developers may have learnt to ignore such lapses, 
but if I may paraphrase:


TiddlyWiki wasn't put together and designed for developers.
