Note

Due to the overhead involved with checking to see if a page exists, this template should only be used if the primary link does not exist at the moment, but it reasonable to expect that it will be created in the future. Pages where the primary link exists are tracked by Excessive uses of season link.

Examples

• {{season link|2019–20|UAE First Division League}} → UAE First Division League
• {{season link|2019–20|Bangladesh Premier League (football)|Bangladesh Premier League}} → Bangladesh Premier League
