Wrong Ghost Category-Links

This template is suspected to create wrong category-links for "Crafted in ..." Categories. These links are wrong, because the mentioned articles are not an item in which something can be crafted, but merely ingredients.

It does not add the Items to that category though (Meaning, there is only a link with [[:Category:Crafted in ...]]). Strangely there is no actual link on these pages (looked through the html-sourcecode), but the wiki thinks there is and displays it on the [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Category:Crafted in ...]]-pages.

Examples

etc. a list of these Pages can be found at Special:WantedPages and searching for "Crafted in " — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cadeib (talk • contribs) at 9:17, September 15, 2015(UTC). Please sign your posts with ~~~~

Yeah, Minemodoverlord and I were looking over this trying to figure out why it was doing that. Unfortunately, neither of us really knew what we were looking for, so we just have to wait for IllegalOpCode to return and review them. --Mr Pie 5 (talk) 14:14, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
Just found the reason for this behaviour: it's a bug in the MediaWiki-software, so nothing really wrong with this template. This bug causes, that an entry in the link-table is created when the template calls the #ifexist: Page-function. To fix this behaviour, the template just has to be rewritten without the #ifexist-function, if possible. Sorry for the not signing earlier. --Cadaeib (talk) 15:08, 15 September 2015 (UTC)
