	+ {{{Example of linkshere: + A page called "a very long page name" with a [[linkshere]]' macro + should list all pages that include a link ["a very long page name"] + }}} + Suppose there is a category called "a very long category name". Each page that should be in that category should contain a link {{{["a very long category name"]}}}. What if "a very long category name" is too long, can a shorter name be used, so that two names link to the same page? Go in that "a very long category name" page and add a links here macro {{{[[linkshere(a shorter category name)]]}}}, this way both the long and the short name may fall under the same linkshere page.
