Is there a way to prevent the template from wikilinking to Aviation Safety Network ??
[edit]Hello Wikipedians. In some articles the ASN Accident template is used multiple times, and each time it generates a wikilink to Aviation Safety Network. Per MOS:OVERLINKING#Duplicate and repeat links it's usually frowned upon for an article to have multiple wikilinks to the same page, unless they are distant from each other in the article. However, the template is used almost exclusively to provide references, so all those multiple wikilinks get crowded together in the References section, and it just looks off to me (and if an article is going for a GA, A, or FA status I'd expect any overlinking would be noticed during review.) Is there a version of the template that just uses unlinked text instead, or a parameter that disables the wikilink? If not, of course I can just bypass the template and roll-my-own links, but I figured it would be worth asking in case there's some trick I'm not aware of. — Itsfullofstars (talk) 20:21, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
ASN's new URL structure
[edit]ASN recently changed their URL structure when they redesigned their accident database. Is there a way to change the template to reflect this change? Meltdown627 (talk) 20:16, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
