Special:LonelyPages shows pages that are linked to

The Special:LonelyPages shows pages that are not "lonely"... I've found several pages that I know are linked to in other texts..

The problem seems to be it doesn't take into account "autolinking", so pages that will link to it are not considered.. Only pages where the wiki-bbcode is used..

Please see: https://www.vaultwiki.org/issues/6341/
Since autolinks don't actually exist, you can think of them as imaginary friends to the Lonely page. If it's lonely and you see autolinks, it should give you some ideas for how to give it some real friends.

The problem is that autolinks are actually linking to that page, and I would want to find pages that are actually for real lonely..

If I have autolinking enabled (and also by default on for members), the real scenario is that there are many pages linking to it..

Could it be made to check depending on the autolinking setting?

If autolinks were actually captured, it could be done in a way that allows for a filter on Lonelypages (show auto-links / show physical links).
