When I visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Howard_Sloane, the link from The Heckscher Foundation for Children is listed there. Also Special:LonelyPages does not list Howard Sloane.

Can you elaborate what you mean exactly? The information which pages link where is not updated immediately after an according page change, but it is processed by the job queue. It can take some time until the according job has been run. Has the issue fixed itself in the meantime?

Hi. Thanks for your response. When you go to the Howard Sloane page, there is a message up top that says it is an orphan page. I want to fix that so the page's rating will go up. But you seem to suggest that it is not actually an orphan. I just don't know what to do. Thanks for your help.

The message about the orphan page is placed by a template ({{Orphan|date=March 2014}}), just remove it if it doesn't apply anymore.
