After T107969, I found lots of articles in azbwiki that after import has links.
SELECT count(distinct page_id) FROM page LEFT OUTER JOIN pagelinks ON (page_id = pl_from) WHERE pl_from IS NULL AND page_namespace in (0) AND page_is_redirect = 0 LIMIT 10;
I just tried importing User:This, that and the other/importtest from enwiki to testwiki. As soon as I imported the page, https://test.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Wikipedia:Create_a_new_page correctly listed the link from the newly import page.
In other words: can't reproduce...

Are you saying because they didn't have their links in the pagelinks table, they weren't counted? If newly imported pages aren't getting counted in the statistics, that's a separate issue, one that we have traditionally had a lot of trouble with, but that should have been resolved since the start of this year.
Yes, I'm aware of what a null edit is. I'll try again:
@TTO I was very clear, probably pagelinks missed links or links were not added while importing from incubator.
So what you're saying is: "When I import a page from incubator to azbwiki, the links tables are not updated."
Please try to be a bit clearer. Speaking one sentence at a time is not helpful.
@TTO I'm not a talking person, you should be an expert to understand what I'm saying and I think you understood very well. But as I said, I'm not aware if that's with import or not, there is a debug needed here to see why pagelinks table is missing rows.
I tried importing an XML dump of some The Big Bang Theory season listings to testwiki. And lo and behold, WhatLinksHere did not update; see, for instance, https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Chuck+Lorre&namespace=.
Actually, scratch that: [[Chuck Lorre]]'s link is always within a transclusion of a non-existent template, so it apparently doesn't get counted. Leonard Hofstadter, on the other hand, is working fine: https://test.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3AWhatLinksHere&target=Leonard%20Hofstadter&namespace=
