Yes, I've already requested it be fixed. It took several weeks to fix the revision histories for articles in the main name space so it may take a while for them to fix the File namespace also, but it should get fixed sometime in the near future. Also you may already know this, but if you want to link to an image's file page you can do so by putting a colon before File, for example [[:File:Image.jpg]].
It's a quirk of the software that the order you do the edits can cause that behavior. It's also true of the image page at the bottom where it displayes links to pages where the image is used. This also happens when the image is used via a template sometimes. It's not permanent though, the updates get put into a job cue and they are updated when the server isn't busy doing something else. (The basic gist of the issue is that for it to be completely up to date for any given moment would use too many server resources so they don't). I don't know enough about their particular image cache/server architecture to make a guess about what a "reasonable" time frame for them to start showing up (and stop showing up in the unused page) is but since we don't use it to purge images as some wikis do it doesn't really matter, just more of an inconvenience. I'm getting ready to make an up to date list as well that is A-Z and that will update itself as images are added (using parser functions), I'll give you a link when I'm done. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a> ,,http://clarisonicmia2us.webs.com/#18392 22:54, November 19, 2009 (UTC)
- Actually doing some more digging it looks like I didn't understand it as I thought I did (I looked into it a while back when I first noticed it). I'll do some more investigating and see if I can see what the problem is and how it can be fixed. --How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a>

- It seems that doing a null edit on a page where the image is used fixes it for that page (though not for other pages where it is used). A null edit is where you just open it for editing, don't change anything, and click save changes. It doesn't show up as an edit in the history but if you then go to the image's file page it will show it's used on the other page in the bottom section. The image should also be removed from the unused listing the next time it is cached (looking into it it seems it might only be once or twice a day).--How often to wash makeup brushes? ,<a href=http://cheap-macmakeupor.webs.com/#38275>wholesale mac makeup</a>
