Well, the discussion was about remember templates, not direct
interactive link insertion.

See (info "(Org)Remember templates") :

(setq org-remember-templates
  '((?t "* TODO %?\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/TODO.org")
    (?j "* %U %?\n\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/JOURNAL.org")
    (?i "* %^{Title}\n  %i\n  %a" "~/org/JOURNAL.org" "New Ideas")))

The `%a' refers to an "annotation, normally the link created with
`org-store-link'". The proposed solution is to make this insertion
interactive by prompting for the link description.

Hope it's clearer now!
