            Bug ID: 70767
           Summary: Do not load full entities when invoking LinkBegin hook
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: WikidataRepo
          Assignee: [email protected]

We load full entities for the onLinkBegin hook handler in Wikibase Repo in
order to get a label.

e.g. for each item or property on Special:Allpages, we load the entity to get
the label.

a term lookup, with caching and all, should be used instead.

LinkBegin is also used in places like Special:Watchlist (i think), so if
someone has a gigantic watchlist, it probably will timeout.
