WP:Redlink does not apply. This is not article space and Navboxes have their own distinct policy on redlinking. The part of the a series exemption is used far to broadly for this template, the component articles are quite obviously not a series. A series of articles implies strongly a sequence of which there is none. This is just a group of commonly themed articles.

WP:EXISTING very specifically states that editors should be encouraged to write the articles first. You don't get to get around that by saying pretty please with cherries on top. --Falcadore (talk) 01:26, 13 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
