Hi folks,
I created categories in huwiki for pages with broken file links as written
on
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33413#c12
That was 5 days ago:
https://hu.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Broken-file-category&a…
The old category is still not divided into the new categories! I tried to
wait a few hours, a few days, purge articles and categories several times,
but without any result.
http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kateg%C3%B3ria:Hib%C3%A1s_f%C3%A1jlhivatkoz%C3…
still 1258 members from various namespaces after 5 days. Only approx.
100 pages have leaked into new categories one by one, very slowly. For
example, it has
http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algoritmus. Clicking to this
article it shows category Hibás fájlhivatkozásokat tartalmazó
szócikkek<http://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kateg%C3%B3ria:Hib%C3%A1s_f%C3%A1…
expected (hidden category!), but opening this category you won"t see
this article in it. And so on.
How is that possible?

Hi.
Basically the category will only change the next time the page has a
linksupdate. This can happen in the following ways:
*Someone edits a page
*Someone does a null edit (not a purge) of the page. [aka Open page,
change nothing, hit save]
*Someone edits a template used on the page.
In particular, doing ?action=purge does *not* update the categories
that are used on a page.
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=28876 is a bug for
making the category change happen quickly. Its on my list of bugs that
I think would be nice if they were fixed.
Cheers,
Bawolff
