When linking to a page through an image, this link does not register. For example, on my website, I'm linking songs to their albums via a thumbnail of the album cover. But the album is actually isted as an orphaned page because the only link to it is through an image.

(this shows up as an orphaned page, but clearly, each song on the album links back to it in the Appears On section).
