Hmmm.... this behavior could be an issue.
[ Example of workflow where the langlink is created before the target article ]
When I request an article translation from en. to fr. instead to translate it
myself, I go to en., get the information I need, open the article to copy/paste
the introduction (which I'll translate on fr., so potential translators get an
idea of the topic), add the fr. langlink, save and then click on the French
link to create the article.
[ Integrity note ]
To only allow langlinks to existing articles have several advantages to keep
data integrity :
- reduce error risk on manual input (typo, two languages confusion, etc.)
- for Wikipedia: block a tricky way some contributors use to give a false
impression of "articles already present on plenty of other projects": they put
langlinks to a dozen Wikipedia projects, and surprise, it doesn't exist
elsewhere!
