No links at all are to be posted. Contact mods via modmail if you have a link you feel should be posted. Instead use dread short links such as /d/DarknetMarketsNoobs/wiki?id=1c686270. Best practice is if you have some information that helps noobs copy/paste the helpful information instead of linking to outside sites.

NEVER let the market encrypt sensitive data (such as your address) for you. Always encrypt it yourself. The market can always store the plaintext version of your message, and send an encrypted one to the vendor. That way you both think it was encrypted while the market still has the original and unencrypted message. Also if the market gets taken over by law enforcement, they will store the plaintext versions of the messages that the users sent using the ‘PGP encrypt’ checkbox to harvest addresses. But they will still send the encrypted ones to the vendor to not make anyone suspicious.
