Since you're dealing with articles you shouldn't have to worry much
about parser functions within the actual body text, so you should be
able to get a decent approximation by just removing/replacing "{{"
throughout the wikitext and then passing it to action=parse&prop=links.
That would miss cases like {{see also|Foo}} which generates a link to
Foo that isn't entirely due to the template, but it might be enough for
your purposes.
