Description

I argue in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Main_Page and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RecentChangesLinked/Main_Page

what is called relevant links, marked as red, is extra as the Talk page link isn't a link of the 'Special:WhatLinksHere' special page itself and those aren't action on the page to show other possible actions on the page while on Special:MovePage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MovePage/User:Sandbox

It can make more sense (or maybe even not there also) so I say let's remove it from WhatLinksHere and RecentChangesLinked

I'm completely failing to see how removing links like this could possibly be an improvement.

I don't insist on it much though I have my original opinion about it so let's close. Thanks 😊
