List of offending table entries

I noticed that the July dump of en.Wikipedia's category table contains sixty entries with negative numbers in the cat_pages field. More info to be had here:

Comment 1 Bawolff (Brian Wolff) 2014-07-19 00:06:58 UTC
Consider the category table to be only a very rough measure.

If the category has < 200 members, the category table entry will get updated on next visit to the category.
