Help:What links here

The what links here facility can be used to see which other pages in the same project contain a link to a given page.

Cases of transclusion:
 * in the case of a template, referral to it is treated as link
 * a link from a template is only treated as such, not as link from the pages that show the link because they refer to the template
 * in the case of an image, using it in a page is listed in the third section of the image description page, but not in "What links here" of that page

This facility works also for a page that does not exist. The What links here button is also on the edit page on which one arrives when following a broken link.

One can also use a link of the form Special:Whatlinkshere/John Smith
