XXN added a comment.

@Xqt, in this particular case for ro.wiki, those categories (some thousands, maybe more than 10k) were moved via copy-paste; now original history is not easily accesible, and even the first edit summary of newly created categories have incorrectly pointing wikilinks to the original cat page. This mass-move was done for purpose of correcting diacritics in page titles: "normal" pages were renamed, but category pages were redirected and re-created with a new correct title (I suppose at that time wasn't implented yet the possibility to move category pages). Thus, I think it would be nice to have a tool for automatic mass history merging.
