This would also be useful to filter out Links from disambiguation pages which should be fairly simple because of the Magicword. Also certain templates like {{other uses}} which alway link to disambiguations.

In practice, this bug makes the list almost useless, because it gets filled with legitimate results that could be (easily?) prevented.

Since https://tools.wmflabs.org/connectivity/ disappeared, editors going after wrong links to disambiguation pages don't have any useful tool.

(I'm echoing the complaints of the ca.wiki community)

As said above, this task makes [[Special:DisambiguationPageLinks]] useless on most wikis given there are legitimate links to disambiguations pages, often in header templates.

I see various possible syntaxes:

1. <validLinkToDisambiguationPage>[[the link]]</validLinkToDisambiguationPage> (new HTML tag)
2. <span class="disambiguation-page">[[the link]]</span> (CSS-like class)
3. [[the link|the link|options=disambiguation-page]] (extended wikitext syntax)

It’a a matter of preferences, but I’m not convinced by any option. I wonder if a more general tag supported by MediaWiki would not be better: something like <specific_content disambiguation_page="true">[[the link]]</specific_content> where the attributes would be extension-specific (I think also to an attribute search="no" to disable search on some support templates).
