| This error is triggered by a Javadoc `@link` tag that either is syntactically |
| invalid or can't be resolved. See [javadoc documentation][javadoc] for an |
| explanation of how to correctly format the contents of this tag. |

| ### Linking to generic types |
| |
| Use the erased type of method parameters in `@link` tags. For example, write |
| `{@link #foo(List)}` instead of `{@link #foo(List<Bah>)}` and |
| `{@link #add(Object)}` instead of `{@link #add(E)}`. |
| |
| ### Limitations |
| |
| This check is very limited in terms of which unresolved links it can be *sure* |
| are unresolvable. Code within Google is often compiled on a per-package or even |
| per-file basis, and Error Prone only has visibility into the current |
| compilation. |
