Description Merlijn van Deen (test) 2014-01-11 22:48:32 UTC
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.
Comment 1 Daniel Kinzler 2014-02-07 15:06:43 UTC
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.
