If it's true, and it may well be, is it conceivable that this will be some
kind of a continuous process?

Pretty sure the answer is no (Although i don't know for a fact).

However, parser cache only lasts for 30 days. So pages will get parsed at
least once every 30 days (if viewed). However that's separate from links
update (aka categories, linter, etc).

I suspect that doing a linksupdate of every article once a month would take
more than a month.

[Wikitech-l] A monthly purge

2020-02-18 Thread יגאל חיטרון
Hello. Could you tell me, please, if there is a monthly purge of all pages,
or at least all articles, in all wikis? I remember there were plans about
this, to aid the Linter, but I don't know what happens now. I consider to
suggest a new feature to our Village Pump, but it it can be turned on only
with a purging of all articles. Thank you.
