Steps to reproduce ------------------ Add/change a link to any page on wikidata. Expected behavior ----------------- The change shows up in the langlinks table immediately or after some time. Actual behavior --------------- An edit on the page is required to update the langlinks table. This is a problem, especially for categories, as they typically receive a small number of edits. There should be some automatic process for syncing these changes - either immediately or with some reasonable delay.
Changing the item on wikidata.org should indeed cause any client page that uses that data to be purged and re-rendered. However, I'm not sure whether we store language links from wikidata in langlinks at all. Needs further investigation/verification.
