Category:Auto-outdated

Please do not delete this category even if it is empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This category is a temporary collection point for articles that were tagged with the Auto-outdated template and have since "expired".

ALERT: This category may not show ALL the entries until the associated template has been updated (Template:Auto-outdated). See infobox below for instructions.

Or click the following link, then return to the tab for this page and refresh this page using the browser or CRTL F5.    Click here to purge the "Auto-outdated" template's server cache.

This category has been created to act as the receiving point for Template:Auto-outdated which will add this category to the page once the tagged article has exceeded the set point of the template. A page will only be visible here and the category will only be displayed on the page when Template:Auto-outdated has “expired”.

The template is used to determine when a specific article should be reviewed and or updated based on the variable time period specified using the template's parameter value. For instance, {{Auto-outdated|14}} will activate 14 days after the last revision date for the page in question. See the template documentation for further information.

The template also has the capability to create sub-categories using parameters 2 and 3 which can be used to group the articles with similar topics together (as well as being displayed on this main category page) and or to make a sub-category that relates to specific groups (like Wiki Support) or a specific individual.

To remove a page, simply re-save the article after updating and verifying that all links work properly (or perform a dummy save).

To ensure that ALL currently outdated pages are being displayed in this category, perform a Null Edit on the Auto-outdated template (when in edit mode re-save the template without any page changes) and then refresh this category page using the browser or Ctrl-F5.
