Some notes for me on templates:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Category

whenever a template is edited, all the pages that transclude it are put into the job queue to be recached during periods of low server load (but see The Mediawiki Manual, which appears to contradict this, emptying the queue only at periods of high server load). This means that, in busy periods, it may take hours or even days before individual pages are recached and they start to appear in the category list. Performing a null edit to a page will allow it to 'jump the queue' and be immediately recached.

If it is necessary to add the template itself to the category page as well, the 'includeonly' tags can be omitted, but this is generally not desired.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:34, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
