At the moment, the extension does not offer users to use links to articles on this page. Although almost all Wikipedia tries to make links from the language code to an article about this language. Therefore, in the old template scheme, you had to set the links manually, and in the new one, use third-party modules that are not everywhere. A couple of years ago we allowed the use of the parser on this page, but it seems to me that this is not enough (T34398). For Wikimedia projects, links should be used via wikidata to an article about the language.
