+==============================================
+Deprecation: #84145 - Deprecate ext_isLinkable
+==============================================
+
+See :issue:`84145`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+Method :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Tree\View\ElementBrowserFolderTreeView->ext_isLinkable()`
+has been deprecated. It always returned true and still does it until removed.
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+Little to no impact in extensions, the method behavior usually does not change.
+
+
+Affected Installations
+======================
+
+Extensions extending the folder tree of the element browser may be affected but
+still should not change their behavior. Extension scanner may find usages and
+marks them as weak match since the methods appears in other classes as well.
+
+
+Migration
+=========
+
+Don't call :php:`ext_isLinkable()` anymore and assume :php:`true` as return value.
