MediaWiki provides a Linker class, which was used to generate links in MediaWiki for a long time. The more powerful LinkRenderer service replaced some of the Linker functions, which now are deprecated. To make it possible to remove the Linker::link() function from the Linker class, it's needed to replace all remaining usages of Linker::link().

Your task is to replace all usages of Linker::link() in three MediaWiki extensions of your choice. You can select them yourself from the remaining extensions (please do see the Phabricator link for a list what needs to be converted and note that this list might get outdated the more GCI students have worked on fixing an extension!).

Example conversion (simple): https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/303075/
