About the link tag
link is a character tag that NovelAI Diffusion can use. On Danbooru it has 15,233 posts, and its best-rated still image scores 995. The samples above put the tag at the front of a fixed base prompt with seed 1234, so the differences between tags come from the tag alone.

FAQ
Does NovelAI recognize link?
Compare the samples on this page. Every tag on this site shares the same seed and base prompt, so any change you see comes from link.
How do I write link in a prompt?
Write "link" near the front of the prompt and separate it from other tags with commas.
Should I use V5 or V4.5?
V4.5 shows the tag's effect more strongly. V5 gives steadier images with fewer artifacts.
