Don't list translations as orphaned pages
Closed, ResolvedPublic2 Estimated Story Points

Description

Pages using the Translate extension have all translations listed on Special:LonelyPages ("Orphaned pages"). Apparently, the <languages /> bar does not register links in the Special:WhatLinksHere collection, so these pages are all considered orphans, and now are clogging up almost the entire list on projects like Meta-Wiki.

I no longer see translation pages on https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:LonelyPages&limit=500&offset=1000

There are some pages that have the language code:

But these are not part of the Translate extension's translation system.
