Hello!

At

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:Nicht_verbundene_Seiten?namespace=0

articles without a wikidata object are listed.

For some entries, even if the already connected to a wikidata object, they still apear in the list of unconnected page (unless a "forcelinkupdate" is executed manually).

So the backlog of pages which seam to be unconnected gets constantly growing, altough they actually are already connected.

It might take until the next day till they disappear from this list (meanwhile filling up the list with other, newer entries) - I assume, until some user edits the page after it has been connected.

This problem just recently appeared, a few weeks before all entries disappeared immediately after they have been connected.

---

A workaround to make the already connected pages disappear from this list ist to call a "forcelinkupdate" with

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:ApiSandbox#action=purge&format=json&forcelinkupdate=1&titles=Belarussischer_Fu%C3%9Fballpokal_2014/15

for example, which continuously has to be done for almost every single entry, since they do not disappear otherwise for hours or even days.

A purge with

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belarussischer_Fu%C3%9Fballpokal_2014/15?action=purge

does not change anything, the articles are still listed in the list of "unconnected" pages (although they are actually connected) after calling "action=purge".

The related english page is

though I do not know, if the bevahiour is the same for this page.

Thanks a lot!
