Description Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason 2005-11-01 10:50:35 UTC
The pagelinks table doesn't update correctly for pages that link indirectly to
other pages, e.g. templates, steps to reproduce:

1. Create Template:Countries with the following contents:
* [[Utopia]]
2. Write {{Countries}} in [[Country]] and save it, two pages will now show up in
Special:Whatlinkshere/Utopia: [[Template:Countries]] and [[Country]]
3. Modify Template:Countries so that it links to [[Dystopia]] instead of [[Utopia]]
4. Special:Whatlinkshere/Utopia still lists [[Country]] as linking there
5. Special:Whatlinkshere/Dystopia only shows [[Template:Countries]] as linking
there, not [[Country]]

What should have happened:
1. The entry in the pagelinks table showing that [[Country]] links to [[Utopia]]
should have been removed
2. An entry should have been added to the pagelinks table showing that
[[Country]] links to [[Dystopia]]
