Anyway, if you enabled personal Java Script, then you can create an actual Purge Button so that you don't have to manually type "?action=purge" or waste time resaving an already saved page, whenever you want to do that. It happens with me a lot too, not just while licensing images, but I didn't know I could solve this purging pages. I usually do a null edit (don't remember how I discovered it worked, but I've been using that since then).

Note: I hadn't seen this message when I posted my previous comment. Mrkermit wrote: Edit buttons are little different than changing template. See Help:Custom edit buttons. But before editing MediaWiki:Common.js, consider which options are good default for everyone and which could be added just to personal edit button. See also: Help:JavaScript review process.

I can help if needed but it should be quite easy. Thanks!
