Hi. I'm working on KLF discography. To aid with
formatting, I created
two templates. The image thumbnails I am using get passed as arguments
to the templates. I've noticed that, presumably as a result of the use
of a template, the Image page doesn't know that the image is being
used in an article (see e.g. Image:The KLF- Burn The Bastards.jpg).
I'm worried that some bot will come along and say "right, they're not
being used", and list them for deletion.

"What links here" for images is already

the image description page should suffice.
It should be perfectly reliable for pages edited since the job queue was deployed, on
February 24 or
thereabouts. I'll take any bug report related to link tables very seriously. The
problem in this
case appears to be that the cache of the image description pages is not invalidated when
the list of
links changes. I'll see if I can fix it right now.
