A few links to working pages don't seem to show that the pages are there.
For example, I just moved the page [[Halifax Regional Municipality, Nova Scotia]] to [[Halifax, Nova Scotia]]. There were a plethora of links existing to [[Halifax, Nova Scotia]]. However, they don't seem to have "taken"; they show the question mark indicating that the page hasn't been created. Should I click there, however, the Edit screen pops up -- with the text of [[Halifax, Nova Scotia]] in it.
Likewise, the What Links Here page of [[Halifax, Nova Scotia]] indicates barely any links at all -- which I know isn't true. (For example, [[Nova Scotia]] links there, but isn't listed.)
What to do?

This seems to have sorted itself out now, but just so's you know, there seem to be long-standing issues with links not being updated properly in the database. Often, making a minimal edit to the page in question clears them up; I'm not sure if there's any other known circumstance under which they "come to life"....
