RelatedChanges doesn't show page creations after 19th August 2025
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

See https://en.wiktionary.org/w/index.php?hidepageedits=1&hidecategorization=1&hideWikibase=1&target=Category%3AEnglish+lemmas&limit=500&days=7&title=Special%3ARecentChangesLinked&urlversion=2, for example. Many pages are created up to the 19th August, and then nothing.

Special:RecentChanges functions as normal, showing page creations.

Everything seems to be working as expected on en.wiki RelatedChanges at the time of writing, so I suspect something rolling out on the train this week is the culprit.

Event Timeline

For a specific example on it.wiki:

https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prva_hrvatska_ko%C5%A1arka%C5%A1ka_liga_1994-1995 was created about 10 minutes ago, with the category Pallacanestro nel 1994. Related changes for that category is empty: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciale:ModificheCorrelate/Categoria:Pallacanestro_nel_1994

RelatedChanges on one of the other categories on the page shows a page creation yesterday but not this one today.
