Red Link should be plain text if there's no link

My apologies on the overly vague description, but I still think it's bad form to include a dead link to a WP page that doesn't exist. Until there's content there, or a realistic expectation it will be soon, the by-election statement should be plain text, in my opinion and understanding of WP practice. I don't want to get into a Revert War, so please let me know why you'd rather have a red link there, Schwede66? The Cap'n (talk) 06:00, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As per WP:REDYES and my detailed edit summary. Your understanding of WP practice appears to be wrong. Schwede 66 07:25, 10 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
