Description MZMcBride 2008-12-23 01:51:34 UTC 
Currently there's no mechanism for refreshing category member counts. So certain categories, like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Temporary_Wikipedian_userpages say they have over 12,900 members, when in reality it has only about 3,000 members.

Possible options:
* Admin-only page like Special:Purge
* Basing it on a percentage of pageviews (.01% of page views purge the count)

Why admin-only?
