Forum:List of links to a page - omitting links?

Basically, I'm on a wiki involving episode articles, and each episode article has a link to every other episode article via a fixed template. As a result, the "What links here" page for each of those episode articles includes every other episode article in the list (here's an example of what I mean).

I'm trying to use the "What links here" section to help me with something else, but this is made harder by having every episode article in the list, when they're only linked through the fixed template. Is there any way to omit these links from the list, since they aren't actually links in the articles themselves, but links in the template being used by the articles? Hope that all made sense.

 * There's no direct way of doing what you want that I know of, there's two indirect ways of doing what you want though that I use myself. Without knowing more about the "something else" you're trying to accomplish I'll describe the first (the second is a lot more complicated). And just to clarify, as I understand it, when you say episode articles you mean articles about individual episodes, not articles about content from a specific episode:  First go to the template and change all of the episode links from Name to Episode/Name, for example The Birth of Greymon to Episode/The Birth of Greymon. Save the template and now you'll have redlinks for all the episodes, go to each one and redirect them to the actual episode. That is the page Episode/The Birth of Greymon will now have "#Redirect The Birth of Greymon" on it.    Now you'll need to specify the whatlinkshere link with an additional parameter, for example Related Content would give you a link to a list of linked articles that doesn't show any pages that only linked through the template (or any other redirects). -- Tlosk 22:15, March 26, 2010 (UTC)

That's a good idea, though what I'm doing actually involves the redirects, so I'm afraid the method won't be able to help me in this situation. Thanks for the useful tip anyway. I'll keep it in mind. THB  → Talk ← 04:22, March 27, 2010 (UTC)
