list=alllinks provides a way to iterate over all links in a wiki.
- The usage is low. In a full day only ~100 distinct IPs hit this endpoint and mostly are crawlers or users hitting the help examples.
- It doesn't have any user-facing equivalent and people haven't requested for it.
- When it was implemented, there wasn't any request for it in the bug tracker of that time.
- It doesn't make much sense, it iterates over billions of rows, what use such endpoint is going to have?
- The only potential usecase is the prefix search (alprefix) but it seems unused and search could handle it?
- This doesn't work well with the normalized pagelinks form, specially with alfrom= or alto= options (T359425)
The same probably goes for alltransclusions as well.
