Thanks for the pointer.  Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Wikipedia
has the DPL extension installed
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version).  Any other ideas would
certainly be welcome.

Use DPL.
<DPL>
linksto=PAX9
notuses=Template:Transcription factors
</DPL>

        Hello,
         
         
         
        I'm trying I get the list of all pages that link to
        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAX9, but minus the pages that only
link
        through a commonly-transcluded template
        (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Transcription_factors).
For example
        this query:
         
         
         
        
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&list=backlinks&bltitle=PA
X9&bllimit=500&blnamespace=0
         
         
         
        returns http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P53_%28protein%29 as the
first entry,
        but "[[PAX9]]" does not occur anywhere in this page's source,
only as a link
        from the transcluded template above.
         
         
         
        Any suggestions on how to remove (or identify) backlinks which
are resulting
        from template transclusions?
         
         
         
        Thanks,
         
        -andrew

As far as I am aware this is not possible.
