$linkfavbit
$linksendtofriendbit
$linkreportlinkbit
$linklikebit
$linkstarbit
$linknewbit

?

There's two different points to consider -

a) the various link_linkbit_* templates can all use any of the variables that are used in the other templates - so you can freely mix and match among these templates.

b) however, the variables are built up in different ways (or not at all) depending on what you are doing. So for example, after a search, not all the variables are created. Similarly when rating/commenting, etc.

For any particular action, the same variables will always be created, regardless of the template. For different actions, different combinations of the variables are created. This is what I need to check carefully.
