Two points[edit]

  1. Page is so massive, it really needs to be split up to allow section editing
  2. There are some 'false positives' where I couldn't find a problem

Re: section editing: I've added some AELs. Feel free to add more.

The four Old French ones which had a category were coumin, dete, oignement & puis. Mglovesfun (talk) 14:50, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
As I mentioned in the Grease pit, the list includes cases where a section and category were added after the category-links SQL dump was created but before the XML dump was (a gap of some five hours). —RuakhTALK 15:40, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
By the way, it just occurred to me that the XML dump includes a last-modified timestamp. At this point I don't want to re-generate this list, since then it would re-include all the entries that y'all have already fixed, but if we do this again after the next dump, I can set it to ignore pages that were modified within the problematic window. —RuakhTALK 16:12, 7 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Another issue[edit]

Editing suor, I don't see it in uncategorized entries for Italian. It seems that the auto-generated lists should exclude some more categories, such as apocopic forms (this case), also alternative forms, alternative spellings, given names, surnames, male given names and female given names and finally terms spelled with (insert character here).
