Description

The Structured Discussion page el:User_talk:George62tv is included in el:Category:Σελίδες για γρήγορη διαγραφή (Candidates for speedy deletion)

There is no obvious reason the page would appear in this category. There is no template and no category in the description and no Topic in the discussion.

Note: it seems that the user enabled and disabled SD for several consecutive times, and there is one archived page and one redirect created by the Flow talk page manager. It seems that the bot was moving the page back and forth. Yet there was never a category or related template in these pages.

Another reproducer: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User_talk:%E9%AA%8C%E8%AF%81%E7%A0%81/Flow_Archive_1 in https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Category:Archive&redirect=no (which is a redirect and thus should be empty). Neither adding and removing the category from the wikitext nor deleting and undeleting the page works to clear the stuck category.

Moving the page to a different title does suceed in clearing the category, though. But it will come back if it gets moved back. Some data stuck in a database somewhere where it shouldn't be? But I'm not going to add Wikimedia-database-issue (Bad data) to this page since there's no point in investigating as Flow is dead.
