Please explain what pages exactly did you move and why.

For example on a meta's normal config of translatable page [[A/zh]], [[A/ja]], [[Translation:A/str1/zh]] ([[Translation:A/str1/ja]] does not exist). When I found [[Translation:A/str1/zh]] is actually in Japanese so I move it to [[Translation:A/str1/ja]], neither [[A/zh]] nor [[A/ja]] is updated.

This is "normal", because the last entry in history will be a fake one. You have to make a dummy edit and it will be fixed (on ja). I don't know how hard it would be to fix it but lowering severity because it's an edge cases with an easy almost complete solution/workaround (which is widely used on MediaWiki albeit annoyin).

I doubt whether an empty edit on ja fixes [[A/zh]]
