http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Articles_with_missing_files should be limited to mainspace only pages, after preforming a null edit the pages are sorted correctly (there are three different categories, one for templates http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Templates_with_missing_files , the one above for mainspace, and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Pages_with_missing_files for everything else). After some time the job queue comes around and re-parses a page and then its back in the articles category even though {{NAMESPACE}} should place it in the proper category.
<from the talkpage of the related message http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Broken-file-category>
This doesn't appear to work reliably; the {{NAMESPACE}} etc get transformed by the generic message transformation and I'm not convinced it's consistently related to the namespace of the page being parsed. On a local test, for instance, when editing a template I see a background job queue item to rebuild links on the page using it -- which ends up labeling the page as a 'Template'. On the live site these'll be happening from background job queue runners, so not sure what title the message cache might think they're on. --brion (talk) 21:43, 6 October 2011 (UTC)
