Bug ID: 63501
Summary: Link many feature only a burden for heavily reused
footnotes
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Cite

One of the footnotes is used 500+ times on that page. The backlinks are
flooding the References section. It is pointless to display them when the link
is used more than, say, five times.
Please implement either default suppression for highly-used footnotes or
alternatively add an attribute for the tag like uselinkmany="no" or
"maxdisplaylinkmany=5".
