 * Even after I deleted the plugin, I still see data-wpel-link=”internal” and data-
   wpel-link=”external”. Is there any way I can remove them?

 * It’s cache messing with you. Make sure you empty the cache on WP and on your 
   server.

 * Nopes. Not at all cache. I cleared the server cache, WP cache as well as Cloudflare
   cache. It’s still there.
