After moving categories on w:cs with category.py move there are no sortkeys.
In this diff you can see an example.
I tagged with high priority, since this bots work has to be fixed manually (usually in lots of categorized pages) since the sortkeys are important.

I think category move -inplace should be used to keep sortkey , and the default is to not keep the sort key. I've added some basic test cases to confirm that -inplace does keep the sortkey (and fixed a bug in the process).
Thanks for the fix. May I know, why would anyone want to remove sortkeys in categories that were very probably added manually?
Im not sure, and we can make changes to behaviour if there isnt any logic reason for the existing logic.
I think some category sortkeys become inappropriate if the category is moved because it changes its scope.
