Hi,
take a look at
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Pok%E9mon
Not that I'm particularly interested in Pokémon or anything, but I wonder: How come a number of articles are listed under "C" even though they don't begin with C?
I've also looked at the source text of the pages, and they all just contain the standard [[Category:Pokémon]] and no special identifier.
Is this a bug? Timwi

Hello timwi,
There was a bug that sorted all category into the "C" section of a category list. This bug have been fixed. The trouble now, is that all articles that some (all?) articles that have been added to a category are listed in the "C" section !!!
I edited http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Professor_Felina_Ivy so it can be reparsed, it's no more listed under "C" but under "P" now.
I think the cl_sortkey was set to Category:Professor_Felina_Ivy instead of Professor_Felina_Ivy.
Two solutions: 1/ edit incorrect article, change something, save it : new category sort key will be generated. 2/ bug a dev to have a look at this and fix them all. This solution might need to reparse all articles with a cl_sortkey set as Category: and I think it will take too much time :/
At least, it's user fixable :o)

Ah, I see. This is like the links table bug: Even when it's fixed, it has permanent effects that need to be fixed separately. (Not saying that the links table bug has completely been fixed, but I can understand if all the developers are pretty much stumped at it, because it's not reproducible.)
Thanks :) Timwi

Hi,
sorry, I didn't read the mailing list during the Berlin meeting. The bug is fixed. If any other strange things happen, please drop a note at the sourceforge bug tracker.
