I miss a shortcut like ALT+SHIFT+<something> for the "Add links" feature, similar to the ALT+SHIFT+r which is available for the recent changes link.

Comment 1 Lydia Pintscher 2014-11-03 17:19:30 UTC

Which shortcut could we use?

Comment 2 Helder 2014-11-03 17:42:37 UTC

I'm not sure which letters are already in use by MediaWiki.

Picking proper access keys is quite hard, especially if you want to keep accessibility in mind (which we clearly should).
