Problem

My understanding is that the API reference should only include links to gallery examples if the given API function is listed in the .. admonition:: References block of the example, see documentation and e.g. #19233 (comment). However, links seem to be generated for any function in the example, see for instance set_axis_off where set_axis_off is included in the references list in only 2 of the 9 linked gallery examples. plot links to even 176 examples (there's hardly any example that's not linked to from there).

(this is kind of the reverse of #19715)

Suggested improvement

Add links only to those gallery examples that explicitly list the given function in their references block.
