So what's with all the red links? Did I miss some major change to the wiki?

Would themed variants of Monopoly (which are potentially infinite) go here?

How about that futuristic vs. of Risk that doesn't include a copy of the classic Risk rules in its packaging?

re:cut

This seems like an old fan term for a genre: "Ameritrash is "a catchphrase for 'American style boardgames.' In general, this means games that emphasize a highly developed theme, characters, heroes, or factions with individually defined abilities, player to player conflict, and usually feature a moderate to high level of luck.""

There is no complaining on the page and I'm not sure what a pass through YKTTW will do unless you are familiar with the term and so know how best to define it and describe it well. In which case, just clear up the page.
