This page (Apathy Killed the Cat) is one of at least two pages where the term \\\"lampshaded\\\" is used, but is not marked with a link so the reader can figure out what \\\"lampshaded\\\" means. I assume that it means the use of LampshadeHanging, but I had to search to find the trope and then read the description to make sure it was what \\\"lampshaded\\\" was referring to. No big whoop, but why not just make it a link and make it easier for the reader.

I ask simply because having found it in a couple of places I wonder if there is some specific reason not to make it a link.

The other pages I ran across were TruffautWasRight where the word is used twice with no link. In ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything where the trope is mentioned 11 times, but only 3 are lampshaded. I can see where if the word is used multiple times in the same article and the first time it is used it has a link the reader would be likely to assume the term may have been used elsewhere on the page and do a search.
