Hi @Taiwania_Justo,
unfortunately this report lacks some information. Please add a more complete description to this report (a list of steps to reproduce which leave no room for interpretation what to do, describing actual results and expected results after performing the steps to reproduce). You can edit the task description by clicking Edit Task.

I do not see any bug or problem described in this task (yet).
Both https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cow_on_pole_with_horns.jpeg and https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cow-on_pole,_with_antlers.jpeg exist.
If you want to see https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cow_on_pole_with_horns.jpeg deleted, you need to contact the zh.wikipedia community? Or do I misunderstand?

Hi @Aklapper

The file page in Chinese Wikipedia (https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Cow_on_pole_with_horns.jpeg) has a template with Wikimedia Commons logo. This means that the file is existed in Wikimedia Commons, not Chinese Wikipedia.

And when we delete a file from Chinese Wikipedia, the categories tagged to the file should not seen the file in these categories. Also, a file from Wikimedia Commons and never existed in a local Wikimedia projects should not appeares in a category of the local Wikimedia projects.

But in this case, https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:%E7%BE%8E%E5%9B%BD%E5%85%AC%E5%85%B1%E9%A2%86%E5%9F%9F%E5%9B%BE%E5%83%8F appears the Cow_on_pole_with_horns.jpeg and cannot removed from this category.

@zhuyifei1999 ^^

I think that make edit in File:Cow-on_pole,_with_antlers.jpeg will be works. But it doesn't.

I add {{PD-US}} into File:Cow-on_pole,_with_antlers.jpeg, and I found there are 2 sames file in Category:美国公共领域图像.

Capture.PNG (1,011×626 px, 233 KB)

But the filename is different.

Xiplus claimed this task.

[[File:Cow on pole with horns.jpeg]] is redirect to [[File:Cow-on pole, with antlers.jpeg]] on Commons, and there is a local description page for [[File:Cow on pole with horns.jpeg]], so this file is shown in [[Category:美国公共领域图像]]. Now I remove the category markup (transclude via {{PD-USGov-NOAA}} ) and the file is no longer shown in the category.
