MediaWiki messages sometimes have parameters for the displayed values to be customized; for example, MediaWiki:Rollbacklinkcount <https://www.wikidata.org/?title=MediaWiki:Rollbacklinkcount&action=edit> has one parameter, $1, to show the number of edits to be reverted, which also lets us write "edit" (if 1) or "edits" (if not 1). Here I'm suggesting to create a new MediaWiki message with which we can specify the target URL of the feedback links, but with some parameters (if possible, at least title of the protected page and PID of the statement). This would give us and Wikibase instance owners the possibility to change the feedback links by modifying the content of the corresponding page in the MediaWiki namespace, so it might not be necessary to make new changes to the Wikibase code in case we want to improve the feedback strategy in the future. These parameters let us include the arguments pre-filled in possible requests for change/attention, categorize requests selectively or even direct messages to one page or another depending on the property ID of the statement or the entity type to which the user draws attention. Similar to an error report, the more parameters about the environment, the user and the data are added to the MediaWiki message, the better and more efficient the response can be. It's merely optional to use the available arguments in the final message, and surely the first links we have won't use them because they'll be simple links to the corresponding talk pages, but this option is probably not the best (it will cause many messages to be ignored, just as many of them are right now), so we and the owners of Wikibase instances would have room to improve, update or customize the links at any time (e.g., in case we want to centralize feedback or requests for change on one or a few general pages).
