Description

Author: falkeli

Description:
If a template (or other transcluded page) contains a category, and then is deleted, then the transcluding pages remain in that category. This causes major apparent backlogs at en.wikipedia speedy deletion category, when a highly transcluded page is tagged for speedy deletion.

Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
