Description

I make this query:

The returned data includes the many correct entries, but also the incorrect:

"{\"pageid\":5216235,\"ns\":0,\"title\":\"Kim Gun-mo\"}"

The page "Kim Gun-mo" does not link to "BoA'.

This is one example of many such overzealous entries I have found.

If this is not a bug, what causes these incorrect entries to be returned? Can I prevent them from appearing?

Mentioned Here: T14019: ifexist function uses pagelinks table in lieu of better options

Both using the same database tables. Just purge or nulledit the title to get it reparsed and the database updated.

Maybe there is a link in the templates or using #ifeixsts (T14019)

Reedy updated the task description. (Show Details)
