Usage

What

{{Templates linking contents}}

Where

Appended to the documentation of each template listed above.

Why

Common list summarizing and comparing the main templates available for user-oriented links between contents in galleries, categories, images, and sister projects. Excluded are disambiguation and redirection templates such as For2, and meta-templates such as lts, etc.

Notes

The template embeds its own heading so that section-editing edits the transcluded instead of the transcluder.
