+=====================================
+BeforeDatabaseRecordLinkResolvedEvent
+=====================================
+
+..  versionadded:: 14.0
+    The event :php-short:`TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Event\BeforeDatabaseRecordLinkResolvedEvent`
+    has been introduced to retrieve records via custom code in
+    :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Typolink\DatabaseRecordLinkBuilder`.
+
+The PSR-14 event :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Event\BeforeDatabaseRecordLinkResolvedEvent`
+is dispatched immediately before database record lookup is done
+for a link by the DatabaseRecordLinkBuilder and therefore allows
+custom functionality to be attached to record retrieval. The event is stoppable,
+which means that as soon as a listener returns a record, no further listener
+gets called and the core does no further lookup.
+
+The event is dispatched with :php:`$record` set to :php:`null`. If an event
+listener retrieves a record from the database, it should set the :php:`$record`
+property to the record as an array. This will stop the event propagation and
+cause the default record retrieval logic in
+:php:`TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Typolink\DatabaseRecordLinkBuilder` to be skipped.
+
+..  important::
+
+    The event is stoppable: Setting the :php:`$record` property to a non-null
+    value stops event propagation and skips the default record retrieval logic.
+
+Note that the custom code needs to take care - if relevant - of all aspects
+normally handled by :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\Typolink\DatabaseRecordLinkBuilder`,
+such as record visibility, language overlay or version overlay.

+    A PSR-14 event fired in the frontend process before database record
+    lookup is done for a link.
+
+    This event makes it possible to implement custom logic, for example,
+    for specific frontend access when retrieving a linked record in a typolink.
