Wikilink unnecessary edit

Latest comment: 3 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

For subsequent uses (when |first= is not used), it is unnecessary to wikilink TEU, since it would/should have been wikilinked on its first use (per WP:Linking). I propose removing the wikikink for TEU while retaining it for twenty-foot equivalent unit. Senator2029 ❮talk❯ 05:23, 26 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Agreed, I just came here from a different page to see if we could make that edit. Since there are potential scenarios where TEU might need to be relinked (MOS:DUPLINK), maybe we should add one further optional flag that lets us wikilink TEU if that's necessary for whatever reason? We should default to not wikilinking it, though. I'm not super confident about editing templates so ideally someone more experienced could do this. Maybe an arrangement similar to Template:NetT?
