Fix DynamicPageList incorrect dates on Wikinews
Closed, DuplicatePublicFeature

Description

Fix DynamicPageList on Wikinews (all languages) to show correct dates for pages, instead of an incorrect fixed date (like February 17, 2025) that appears for many older articles.

Use case(s):

1. On zh.wikinews, using the DynamicPageList plugin with parameters  category=中国 ,  count=30 , and  addfirstcategorydate=true  returns pages that were categorized long before February 17, 2025, but the plugin marks their first category date as February 17, 2025.

2. On en.wikinews, using  category=china ,  count=500 , and  addfirstcategorydate=true  exhibits the same issue: pages with historical categorization dates incorrectly display February 17, 2025 as their first category date.

No matter what you fill in category=, the result is the same.
