Function overview: Avoid unnecessary wiktionary linking in ((linktext)) calls with Korean text (by removing template call)

Automatic, Supervised, or Manual: Automatic

Programming language(s): AWB

Source code available: WP:AWB

Links to relevant discussions (where appropriate): WT:MOS/Korea discussion

Edit period(s): OTR, though potentially re-run every year or two as I suspect it will take a while for this to "catch on"

Estimated number of pages affected: Max 22,605 (current transclusion count), estimated ~6k

Namespace(s): Article

Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes
