I was wondering if you would agree with me that {{template|ci}} is a "laziness template". How difficult is it to type <nowiki>[[Lilycove City|Lilycove]]</nowiki>?

::I'd say ''a lot'' of link templates are lazy if you classify <code><nowiki>{{fi}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{la}}</nowiki></code> lazy, since many of them are similar to those templates except for a lesser range of links.
