How do I remove a link to a mentioned task

Hi
Im trying to understand how I can remove a link to a referenced task, details are as follows
I have a task (number 180) which has a link to a parent activity (number 104) and also have a mentioned by link to an activity (number 193)
Altough I can remove the link to the parent I cant remove the link to mentioned by as the remove button is greyed out. Ive have full permisions on the project as admin.
Does anyone know a workaround or any idea what I may be doing wrong
Any help really appreciated
Thanks

Mentions/Mentioned By links are computed automatically based on the text
in the work item description and comments. To remove the link, you need
to remove the text that mentions the other work item. If the text is in
the description, that is possible. If the text is in a comment, there
is no way to edit the comment, so there is no way to remove the link.

Hi all,
One of our colleague referenced to an Issue raised in a Jira Instance.
He did put the following words in the RTC's WI Description filed:
Issue 129 (Refering to an issue in Jira).
Could it be possible not having him link to the actual RTC WI 129?
Is there a kind of nolink:'Issue 129' option available?
Thanks,

Hi
What is detected as link is configured in the Types & Attributes section of the project area editor (Process Configuration -> Work Items). Detected are all work item type names and all aliases. The only way to have jazz no link detected for 'issue 129' is to make sure that 'issue' is neither a work item type name nor an alias. 'nolink' for individual links is not possible.
