Bug ID: 58967
Summary: Special:MostLinkedCategories shows links to
non-existent categories with 0 members
Product: MediaWiki
Version: 1.22.0
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Special pages
Assignee: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
Reporter: j....@gmx.com
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
My understanding is that Special:MostLinkedCategories should display links to:
1. existent categories with >0 members,
2. non-existent categories with >0 members,
3. (possibly) existent categories with 0 members.
On the other hand, it should *not* display links to:
4. non-existent categories with 0 members.
Case 4. originates from 3. by removing a page from the respective category or
by deleting an unused category.
Links from case 4. are currently displayed in the Special:MostLinkedCategories
list - this is the point of this bug report.
Also note that Special:MostLinkedPages and Special:MostLinkedTemplates do not
contain links to non-existent pages/templates with 0 links/transclusions.
Some links to show you what I mean:
