Tracking categories
From Eric's Brain
This page lists tracking categories which are automatically populated by the MediaWiki software. Their names can be changed by altering the relevant system messages in the MediaWiki namespace.
| Tracking category | Message name | Category inclusion criteria |
|---|---|---|
| Indexed pages | index-category | The page has a __INDEX__ on it (and is in a namespace where that flag is allowed), and hence is indexed by robots where it normally wouldn't be. |
| Noindexed pages | noindex-category | The page is not indexed by robots because it has the magic word __NOINDEX__ on it and is in a namespace where that flag is allowed. |
| Pages with too many expensive parser function calls | expensive-parserfunction-category | The page uses too many expensive parser functions (like #ifexist). See Manual:$wgExpensiveParserFunctionLimit. |
| Pages containing omitted template arguments | post-expand-template-argument-category | The page is bigger than $wgMaxArticleSize after expanding a template argument (something in triple braces, like {{{Foo}}}). |
| Pages where template include size is exceeded | post-expand-template-inclusion-category | The page size is bigger than $wgMaxArticleSize after expanding all the templates, so some templates were not expanded. |
| Hidden categories | hidden-category-category | The category contains __HIDDENCAT__ in its page content, which prevents it from showing up in the category links box on pages by default. |
| Pages with broken file links | broken-file-category | The page contains a broken file link (a link to embed a file when the file does not exist). |
| Pages where node count is exceeded | node-count-exceeded-category | The page exceeds the maximum node count. |
| Pages where expansion depth is exceeded | expansion-depth-exceeded-category | The page exceeds the maximum expansion depth. |
