Bug ID: 46749
Summary: Category:Pages with broken file links (and localized
variants)
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: File management
Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
Reporter: ice-k...@gmx.de
CC: bawolff...@gmail.com, bryan.tongm...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
This cat is automatically added to images with broken file links but it's not
properly removed if the problem was on the image description page and the
situation had been fixed (missing image uploaded) - Images stay in this cat
although it's not visible on the image page anymore. They are only removed on
the next edit or via null-edit.
Neither purging the cat nor the image page removes the cat, gadgets like
cat-a-lot can't remove it either because the cat is not present for them.
Reported for Commons with currently 2.500 images in this cat, many/most of them
seem to be false positives.
Even after modifying MediaWiki:Broken-file-category to have User pages in a
separate cat not a single of the ~3.000 pages has been placed there, requires a
null-edit to have an effect on the cat placement (or removal).
Without editing the new cat is shown on User pages originally placed in the old
cat although upon editing they are shown as member of the old cat.
