Isn't your query also listing pages with links to (empty) userpages of existing users … ?    FDMS  4    23:59, 17 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@FDMS4: No, as you can see after LEFT JOIN user i put WHERE user_name IS NULL. --Ricordisamoa 00:13, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Then something else must be wrong, it returns files like File:'91 Hermit.jpg which have no links to user pages of non-existant users.    FDMS  4    16:23, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, that was caused by the user names using spaces instead of underscores. Fixed. --Ricordisamoa 01:46, 21 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Ricordisamoa: Can you please link a few test edits here. Thank you. --Krd 06:46, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Krd: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8]. Apparently the easy cases are less than I expected (~200), so I'll have to use care when handling the other ones. --Ricordisamoa 07:44, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Approved per above. --Krd 07:52, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
