This is the Hot List of Encyclopedia Articles which may be missing or incomplete in Wikipedia. It was created using several encyclopedias as sources, but all decisions about what to include were made by Wikipedians.

For general help and tips please see the project guidelines, blue links can be removed after they are verified, many red links may just need to be redirected. Red links for articles that are unencyclopedic and can't be satisfactorily redirected can simply be moved to the "Unencyclopedic articles" section at the bottom of each list.

Numbers remaining exclude items moved to the "Suggestions for non-inclusion" category, and are correct as of at least July 9, 2016.

Do not copy any material from linked websites (or any website): doing so would be a violation of Wikipedia policy. Instead, do use the linked websites as references and for verifying blue links.

• Encarta Encyclopedia
• Encyclopaedia Britannica 2004
