Category:Wikipedia category-redirect box parameter needs fixing

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from CAT:CATREDFIX)

This category's subcategories are automatically populated by the template {{Category redirect}}. Category pages that feed the first parameter to those boxes in the wrong way are put in this category. This is so we can easily find those pages and fix them.

If some case is too tricky or a category page is protected so you can't edit it, don't worry. More experienced editors and admins will work through the cases that get left in this category.

MediaWiki runs updates of category listings (as the one you see below) as a low priority job. Thus if the servers are very busy it can take some days before a category is removed from the list below, even though the category page has been fixed. But normally it is removed within an hour.

Sometimes you need to purge a page to see your change of a {{Category redirect}} box and to get rid of this category from the bottom of a page.

For more about this see Template talk:Category redirect/Archive 1#Template should redirect to category, not article.
