This article may need to be rewritten to comply with Misplaced Pages's quality standards. You can help. The talk page may contain suggestions.

In the Misplaced Pages:Glossary, an orphan is defined as "A page with no links from other pages." These can still be found by searching Misplaced Pages, but it is preferable that they also be reachable by links from related pages; it is therefore helpful to deorphan a page by adding links from other suitable pages. This is part of building the web.

The term orphan has multiple meanings on Misplaced Pages:

  • An Orphaned article could be defined as an article that is not linked to from some other article. Links from disambiguation pages and redirection pages don't count (though a link from one article to another via a redirection page would count). Pages with very few incoming links are also generally considered orphaned.
  • An Isolated article could be defined as an article that cannot be reached via a series of links from the Main Page.
  • An Orphaned image is an image that is not used by any article.
