-- Datalink can be used with the new parameter linking_parameter. It provides an additional
-  meaning to the source identifiers: source_id, transit_id and image_id.
-  This parameter is optional, in order to be backward compatible, and
-  therefore, if the parameter is not set, the source identifiers are
-  considered as source_id. [#2859]

+  columns in the `astropy.table.Table` instance. By default, value True is set, that gives name preference.  [#2967]
