I can see how that makes sense > for a navigation template, I guess. That is correct. This template is used to generate links to the "next" chapter of the books. See e.g. the blue bars on top and bottom of this chapter: https://pt.wikibooks.org/wiki/GIMP/Caixa_de_ferramentas > But does this really need to support up to a thousand (!) parameters? Well, I remember at least two books which have more than 500 chapters: https://pt.wikibooks.org/wiki/Template:Lista_de_cap%C3%ADtulos/Log%C3%ADstica https://pt.wikibooks.org/wiki/Template:Lista_de_cap%C3%ADtulos/Guia_do_Linux and our cookbook has ~2000 chapters: https://pt.wikibooks.org/wiki/Template:Lista_de_cap%C3%ADtulos/Livro_de_receitas > Aren't these pages typically numbered? Not really. The chapter names are usually "descriptive names" (see examples in the lists above), not just numbers.
