The template's name is like a shortcut[]

Can somebody move this to a longer name? TheGreatSpring (talk | contribs) (Tagalog translation) 10:36, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

@TheGreatSpring: I prefer to retain the current name for compatibility reasons. There is no harm in creating a redirect to this template if you want.
This was ported from Wikipedia. It means "Links in article namespace". On Wikipedia there are parallel templates that use the same underlying lua module code, for listing links in other namespaces like users (lu), drafts (ld), article talk (lat), categories (lc), category talk (lct), etc. I haven't ported those over yet.
This template is actually a sub-template of the more general wikipedia:Template:Pagelinks template on Wikipedia, which applies to all namespaces not just specific ones. I moved that one over here too, then realized when I started porting the documentation page that I would have to port over all those other templates as well.

I actually think this template should be moved to

Pagelinks (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs) because it is that but better. Humiebeetalk contribs 21:32, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

But then when I or someone else gets around to porting the rest of the templates under the pagelinks template umbrella, the names would need to change. Nothing wrong with that, but those who are already familiar with the Wikipedia templates should have a similar experience here. Amatulic (talk) 22:44, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
