Can someone please add the following link to the page content?

I don't see how to add to the content. It would be good if the following (underlined addition) were added: "English terms that were originally erroneous or fictitious, published in a reference work as if they were genuine as a result of typographical error, misreading, misinterpretation or another process (e.g., see fictitious entry)."

And even more importantly, the page content here should link to the Wiktionary entry for ghost word. Quercus solaris (talk) 17:53, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

Yes to the category membership, but the term (an error for "damage" in a certain gamebook, due to replacing mage by wizard) wouldn't meet WT:CFI, I believe. Equinox ◑ 13:50, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
