gollark: Thus, WHAT DO?!?!?!?!
gollark: However, this would require more complex code and possibly make rendering generally slower.
gollark: So I would probably need to run through the AST and find all the wikilinks, then execute one query to fetch *all* the relevant information, which I think should be faster.
gollark: And pages may contain MANY links.
gollark: Well, yes, they complete in probably a millisecond at most, but the aim is for all sane operations to take under 40ms.
