• "Most wanted" and "Most popular" special pages list the _total_ number

of links to a page, regardless of how many links there are _per page_. Some types of lists can hyperinflate the numbers; a list of video games might link [[Playstation]] 389 times (once for each Playstation game listed). The behavior that people seem to expect is a count of _pages_ that link, rather than the raw number of links. I would tend to agree. This can be switched by the simple addition of "DISTINCT" to a couple SQL queries; is there any reason to retain the current behavior?

A change would be better - or at least have the number of distinct pages mentioned when using the current method.

• The administrative page rename feature on UseMod could optionally find

and change links to point to the new name in addition to just supplying a redirect. We still haven't implemented this. Desirable?

Yes and no. In many cases (with subpages, f.e.), it would probably make things a lot cleaner. But there are cases when this is not desirable. Maybe it could be an optional feature?
