Product wiki entries have two places to put links (or equally important, to look for them):

There's a separate tab for Links, but on the Description tab, we also find...
 

Related Media/Links:

Add related videos, links to item guides, etc.

As a result, some user-added links will go into the Links tab, some will go into the Description tab.

I'd vote for 86ing the Links tab.

Great feedback!  To give a little background on the page design, the "Links" tab is specifically intended for links to manufacturer pages.  In the Product Wiki area, those headers are actually entirely editable and thus can be changed or removed by any contributor.  The idea for that section was to open up the resource more broadly to invite links to blog posts, reviews on other sites, etc.  But I definitely hear you on the confusion having two locations for links.  We'll definitely think about how we can consolidate!
