            Bug ID: 64815
           Summary: Modify category.py to also update Wikidata on category
                    rename
           Product: Pywikibot
           Version: core (2.0)
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: category.py
          Assignee: pywikipedia-b...@lists.wikimedia.org

At the moment when a category gets renamed the bot creates a new category and
moves all the contents there. This creates a lot of disconnected wikidata
items. See
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Pasleim/Items_for_deletion/Category for a
list.

What the bot should do:
1. Create the new category
2. Check if the old category is connected to a Wikidata item.
3. If that's the case update the sitelink to the new item
4. If the label in the language of the category is the same as the old category
name, update that to the new category name
5. Start moving contents as usual
