The bis problem is, that our MediaWiki 1.10alpha created a Wanted Pages list with dead link by this template. This occurred when updating to 1.10. What is wrong? The template or our MediaWiki version?
This is a (in this case, unwanted) side-effect of registering the link with the parser; the link tables need to be updated with the possible link, so that if the status of the title being tested changes, then the caches of pages using the parser function can be properly invalidated; the posh term is "cache coherency".
The same link tables are also used to generate Special:Wantedpages.
