Thanks Will for pointing this out. I didnt know that.
Great feature.

I guess your snippet should be like this to get the urls right:

function pagesAffectedByChanges() {
        return array($this->Link(),$this->Parent()->Link());
    }

When using this method it might be neccessary to have a strategy resp. method for each PageType, depending on pages that might be affected. This can become quite complex compared to just rebuild all after finishing edit.

You don’t need a button to manually rebuilt. Simply define the pagesAffectedByChanges() function on your object which returns the urls that you want to republish when you publish the page

For instance, a simple case may be to republish just the current page and the parent page

function pagesAffectedByChanges() {
  return array(
    $this->URLSegment, $this->Parent()->URLSegment
  );
}
