Latest version of patch in Gerrit still needs review...

*bump*

(Bringing the discussion from code review over here)

There's two possible ways to fix this bug:

*Broken redirects are excluded when calculating this special page totally. They are not included in the count of the number of links to a page, and just generally are ignored

or

*Broken redirects are included in the count of links to a page. However if all the links to a particular page are broken redirects, then that page is excluded from the list on the special page.

I favour option 1. I think its more consistent to either fully count broken redirects, or not count them at all instead of only semi-counting them. I believe Devunt favours option 2 (See code review for his/her arguments). Anyways, I'd like to ask if other people have opinions or thoughts on the matter.

Change 54120 had a related patch set uploaded (by Qgil):
Special:WantedPages only lists page which having at least one red link pointing to it.

Patch-For-Review

@devunt, this is one of the oldest tasks assigned to someone. Are you planning to work on it, and is its current priority correct?

@Qgil I'll upload a new patch soon. And current priority seems correct.

After discussing with devunt, I think his/her solution actually makes more sense
