Wikipedia has a standard function "What links here". Our Wiki has a special page for this function, but it is not among the tools available in the menu of every single page. it would be a nice-to-have function, because we can use it as a kind of register e.g. for papal letters: if we auto-replace all references to Jaffé numbers with a link to the specific page ("JE 1234" -> "JE 1234") and auto-create the relevant pages (which should be in the category "Papal letters by Jaffe numbers" or the like), then "what links here" on any of these pages will list all articles mentioning the letter in question. Nothing urgent, but would be nice.

Actually, we already have the "What links here" tool. On wide screens it can be found in the rightmost column under "More". If you have a narrower screen which does not allow for a three column layout, these links should move to the leftmost column. So this kind of index should actually develop itself over time (one link at a time). But maybe I have misunderstood. So let me know if I need to implement something or adjust some settings. --Clemens Radl (talk) 15:47, 30 November 2023 (CET)
Thanks! I must have overlooked it. --Christof Rolker (talk) 10:34, 20 February 2024 (CET)
