Description Dario Taraborelli 2011-11-10 02:33:50 UTC
It looks like category lists created on Meta via DPL do not update despite the fact that new pages get added to the category. 

Take this example, the 2011 projects list in this section (left column)
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Projects#projectlist

is populated from Category:2011_projects and it doesn't show any new item since November 2, however:

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Reader_to_first_edit

was created and added to the category after that date, and

http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Project_Name

was deleted on November 4, but it still shows up in the list

Is this some kind of caching problem?

>Is this some kind of caching problem?

Yes. ?action=purge 'ing the page will fix. DPL doesn't do any cache invalidations (one of the most major issues with the extension) so the lists do get outdated, especially on pages that aren't edited often (And don't have templates that are edited often).
