The specialpages are no longer actualised ; [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Uncategorizedpages Uncategorizedpages] used to be actualised once a day ; [http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Shortpages Shortpages] was real-time actualised. I don't give more details cause my english sucks... but this pages were my working tools and it's hard to contribute now, so I hope it's possible to fix it soon. Thanks !
The reason for this is that to keep these up to date in real time requires quite a bit of database work, and when a wiki starts getting as popular as Fr-Wiki now is (congratulations!) then that tends to become infeasible. I appreciate it's less convenient, but if you can ask someone with the right permissions (certain of the developers) nicely, then they might be so good as to run the rebuild script to update it. Alas, this would be a one-off update.
See bug 3945
See bug 4176
I'm going to mark this as INVALID since it discusses a problem already filed as bug 3945 but can't be marked as a proper duplicate since it also discusses the update frequency of the querycache on Wikimedia sites, a different issue alltogather.
