FishTank previously told me that sometimes module or template changes require the effected articles to be "touched" by edits in order for them to properly populate associated categories thereafter. (He also said this can be done with a bot, not that I know how to do that unfortunately.) The problem of the "refresh" is a common one, but it usually took between a few seconds, gradually affecting eventually all pages within minutes to a couple days at most. Now it's apparently only the pages edited recently and/or "major" pages.

The problem seems to be present since the 11th october, or the 12th, when I first notified the problem here.
