Your concerns are that you might click on a blue link to a talkpage with no
discussion, right? I don't see a whole lot of merit to that, frankly, and I
think sometimes MZMcbride likes to bump up his deletion stats and find a use
for his scripts. I can't see any other good reason for deleting these pages
- it doesn't save any space, they're stored anyway. I'd rather have a
talkpage with some instructions and some format than nothing at all, through
my unscientific belief that a new editor is more likely to add to a page
that already exists than create one that doesn't.

There is a discussion on WP:AN about this [1] which

spilled over onto my talk page. No I'm not canvassing or asking
anybody to comment there, but I'd just like some personal feedback, so
I can at least figure out whether I've gone completely nuts or if the
concerns I've raised have some degree of merit.
