Both pages start with <source>, which is a deprecated alias for <syntaxhighlight>. Replacing it with e.g. <nowiki> will remove the pages from the category. Wait, you ask. We are talking about .js pages, don't we? There is not wikitext. Still, for historical reasons, even .js pages are parsed by the wikitext parser to populate database tables like the one needed for Special:WhatLinksHere. This behavior is the reason why .js pages often start with a comment that contains <syntaxhighlight> or preferably <nowiki>. This effectively tells the wikitext parser "there is nothing to see here, please go away". Still it will parse at least this initial tag and report it when it's an outdated <source>. I hope this helps.

Yea, that's really confusing. For consumers that read the page as JavaScript the <source> is in a comment, true. But the wikitext parser doesn't know what JavaScript comments are. It ignores the // at the start of the line. You can test this when you copy-paste the source code from the .js page into a normal wikitext page and click preview. The <source> tag really is executed and it really is correct to track this as "this page uses the outdated <source> alias".
