Find links to nonexistent pages in MediaWiki

I have been searching for a few days and it is hard to find specifics for wikimedia.

Does anyone know of an extension, or report that will show internal links to nonexistent pages?

We host a wiki where we have users that have crated some excellent content, but to have to go through each page to find the links to pages that have not been created yet is next to impossible due to the amount of content.

Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated...

If you want to only see a list of dead links for a specific page or a group of pages, you can use DynamicPageList to run a linksfrom query with openreferences = yes. Go here for more info: http://semeb.com/dpldemo/index.php?title=DPL:Manual_-_DPL_parameters:_Criteria_for_page_selection#linksfrom

Go to your Special:SpecialPages list and you will find

  • Wanted categories
  • Wanted files
  • Wanted pages
  • Wanted templates

which are (more or less) dynamic lists of all redlinks in your wiki.
