Description

On French Wikipedia, some categories are showing 1 page more than this they contain.

Examples:

on Catégorie:Wikipédia:Suppression immédiate, we can see that Catégorie:Wikipédia:Suppression immédiate demandée contains X pages, and when we look at Catégorie:Wikipédia:Suppression immédiate demandée, we can see that it really contains X-1 pages.
on Catégorie:Catégorie redirigée, we can see that Catégorie:Catégorie redirigée non vide contains X sub-categories, and when we look at Catégorie:Catégorie redirigée non vide we can see that it really contains X-1 sub-categories.

If the bug don't appear: do not hesitate to purge page cache because these categories are often included or removed on several pages.

See T221795: Refactor Category::refreshCounts logic to a job and simplify how to fix the underlying problem...

The same issue, which was reported earlier, persists on trwiki. I suggest tracking this task with a higher priority level.

T221679 is closed as a duplicate of T18036. If you technically think that T18036 is not related to T221795 which I mentioned above, then your comment, then please comment on T18036. Thanks!

Categories are now working well, so I closed this task.

The issue persists on trwiki.

{{PAGESINCATEGORY:Vikipedi silinecek sayfalar}} yields 9 even though the category has only 3 items.

Closing as dupe of T85696, again.
