There are a bunch of bogus entries in the links table with l_from=0. Two of them were to template pages, and these were getting
pulled in for the edit page.

I've manually removed those two entries, but there are still others and I don't know whether the source problem is still present.
Changing summary to reflect general problem.

I have checked the links table on for several wikipedias (en, ja, de, fr)
and could not find any l_from=0 entry in the links table.

Most probably the issue is no more happening. Considering the issue
fixed somehow.
