Event Timeline

Categories are updated in the background by the JobQueue system, Changes are not shown instantly and the speed of updating can be effected by a number of things.

How is the category populated in the first place?, Is there a template or Lua module that checks if the file exists and then categories the page?

The category is populated by the following template first. we place this template (https://ta.wiktionary.org/s/4owt) to all the Tamil words first. After that, if anybody add the audio file in a particular format (File:ta-TamilWord.ogg/oga/wav) at Commons for a word, the template automatically change from 'the audio file not available category' (https://ta.wiktionary.org/s/7stn) to 'the audio file available category ' (https://ta.wiktionary.org/s/7sto)
