Unfortunately, Special:WantedPages is not a greatly customisable report. I think if I were building the software from scratch, I'd make it so the report only found links in namespace 0 (the main namespace) to go on this report. As it is, though, it finds redlinks wherever they are, so there's a certain degree of ambiguity about those demonstrative uses in the template namespace and elsewhere. Of course, the report gives us only gives us the first 1000 pages, so it's always going to be highly, highly incomplete here.

Even so, it's still useful as a guide for writing articles. There's absolutely nothing wrong with your style of editing-by-Wanted-Pages, and if you use that list extensively, you'll soon come to recognise the false positives and get to the genuine substance it affords.
