Instead of this:
[[\{{_left|name}}+Environment|Environment]]
Try this:
[[_left+Environment|Environment]]
There are a few things that keep the first way from working. One has to do with the order in which links and inclusions are processed, and the basic takeaway there is that it generally causes problems to put inclusions inside link syntax -- especially on the left side.
The other is that we do generally simplify names for links -- get rid of non-alphanumeric characters, substitute spaces with underscores, etc. If you want to see this view you can try the "linkname" view.
For example, notice the difference between these two:
{{Oil & Gas|name}}: Oil & Gas
{{Oil & Gas|linkname}}: Oil_Gas
perfect, thanks.
Is there also a way to contextualize the name of the link?
e.g. something like this ( I think you get the point...)
[[_LL|\{{_LL}}]]

Actually, yes, that should work. I overgeneralized a bit above: inclusions on the right side of the pipe generally don't cause problems. You can even put images there, doing things like [[Philipp| \{{Philipp+image}}]]
