Classic WoW Wiki:Templates/Elinks templates standardization

Reasoning
After having edited a lot item pages, I got extremely annoyed by Thottbot's irregularity concerning items and mobs/npcs. Whereas most if not every database uses the game's ID for the page's URL, Thottbot uses for these two a website's generated ID which doesn't meet any specific critaeria nor makes it easy to find or use.

Changes and Options
The changes will be applied to the templates and  (the latter never being used is not a big deal but for regularity it should follow). The other Elinks templates only need one argument since Thottbot has been regular with Quests, Spells and Sets. However these two needing two arguments, I believe it's time to reduce this number back to one. Two options :

Option 1 : Removing Thottbot's Argument
The templates would become and link only Allakhazam and Wowhead (and any other that should be added later on). If the author really wants to add Thottbot's ID, he can add the complete URL manually just under the template's position in the article.

Option 2 : Using named parameters
This method would make Thottbot's argument optionnal and named. The templates would then become and the author can freely add Thottbot's link by writing.

Option 3 : No change
We would keep both templates as they are, with the inconvenients described above they can present.
