On the page http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Uncategorizedpages, the page http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%C3%A9roport_Nice_C%C3%B4te_d%27Azur est linked 3 times (links 51,52,53). The catégories have been added since Jan. 6th (http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=A%C3%A9roport_Nice_C%C3%B4te_d%27Azur&diff=1290771&oldid=1290770). Other example : The page http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baldur%27s_Gate_II has been catégorized jan. 9th (http://fr.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Baldur%27s_Gate_II&diff=1321110&oldid=1303483), and is linked as links 56, 57, 58.
This may be caused by a old cached page. So the bug could be a cache leak. The source code doesn't give the age of the page.
The Special:Uncategorizedpages cache has been rebuilt, but the articles are still displayed. Another save of the airport article, which would have rebuilt the `categorylinks` table entries for the article, also did not help. The underlying problem is the presence of multiple copies of the articles, as shown by Special:Allpages/A%C3%A9roport_Nice_C%C3%B4te_d%27Azur and Special:Allpages/Baldur%27s_Gate_II -- see bug 1202 . I reclassified this bug report to be a Wikimedia site problem, as the duplicate articles need to be repaired either by a fr sysop using deletes and undeletes or at database level by a developer with access rights.
The two examples are no longer duplicates. If any other duplicates have been removed from fr cur (and hopefully the 1.4 unique cur index name_title has been applied), we can mark this as fixed.
see http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2382#c1 bug 2382: "existence of duplicate records as a result of bug 1202"
According to bug 1202 the duplication problems were fixed in MediaWiki 1.5 and existing duplications fixed on all Wikimedia sites. Per comment #3 and no activity since 2005, marking this as fixed.
