             Bug #: 35407

           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.19
          Platform: All

Previous discussion: [[commons:User_talk:Saibo#Anzeigeproblem bei
(Unter-)Kats]]

For example (now fixed) form 9th March: [[:commons:Category:7th-century
conflicts]] has the sub cats [[:commons:Category:620s conflicts]],
[[:commons:Category:630s conflicts]] and [[:commons:Category:650s conflicts]]
but they were not shown on [[:commons:Category:7th-century conflicts]].
[[:commons:Category:680s conflicts]] ''was'' shown. The template which sets the
cat  [[:commons:template:ConflictsDecade]] was not edited for a long time. A
fix was done by null-editing the subcat pages. Now they show up correctly. 

This problem may may lead to apparently empty categories but in fact only the
sub cats are not shown ''currently''. This problem appeared in December 2011 in
dewp: [[:de:Wikipedia Diskussion:Mentorenprogramm/Archiv/2011/Dezember#nur
nochmal zur anschauung|MP]],
[[:de:Wikipedia:Administratoren/Anfragen/Archiv/2011/Dezember#Benutzer:Ianusius/Mentees|AAF]].
 

Another example: [[:de:Spezial:Unbenutzte Kategorien]] lists currently (cached
version 2012-03-19, 19:59:03) [[:de:Kategorie:User hes-1]],
[[:de:Kategorie:User hes-3]], [[:de:Kategorie:User hes-4]]
([[:de:Kategorie:User hes-2]] is not listed since it contains also a user page)
although they contain the page [[:de:Wikipedia:Babel/Dialekt/hes]] (created on
2012-02-20). This page was nulledited yesterday to workaround the problem. 

Example 3:
[[:de:Wikipedia:Dateiüberprüfung/Lokal_behaltbare,_aber_auf_Commons_gefährdete_Dateien]]
was listed in [[:de:Kategorie:Wikipedia:Dateiüberprüfung/Besondere Fälle]] but
this category did not appear on the page. Apparent reason: the category was set
via a template ([[:de:... /Vorlage]]) which sets the category if the linked
file is missing. The linked file was missing when the link was created (using
the template) but was created afterwards. The category list on the page was
correctly updated but the page was not delisted on the category page. A
nulledit on the page (IIRC) to the page fixed it.
