Why has this template now attracted links to content in sister projects? I think all of that should be removed. We need only one link to Wikimedia Commons. Links to dozens of files is inappropriate and not how this template is meant to function. The addition of "Eponyms and recognitions" is ridiculous and needs to go, too.

Agreed. Over-enthusistic and inappropriate linking has made it a near-illegible, impractical mess.

I've had a bit of a re-structure and a trim. I think the people could be trimmed further. Only people who are defined by their relationship with Rembrandt should be included. --Rob Sinden (talk) 09:11, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2017-07-20T09:11:00.000Z","author":"Robsinden","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Robsinden-2017-07-20T09:11:00.000Z-Johnbod-2016-12-10T03:43:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"Rob Sinden"}}-->
