Forum:Job Queue

Can anyone tell me what Job Queue is in a wiki's stats, and if I need/can do anything related to it? Fun Fact Of The Day: Wikia need just over 600 more registered users to reach a total of 3 million.


 * When you make changes to a template, for example, the software will automatically update all pages that use this template. These changes will be displayed in the "job queue". -- Weas-El ✉  11:48, July 9, 2011 (UTC)


 * Any updates on a wiki that don't happen immediately are probably in a job queue which is basically a waiting line for automated tasks like refreshing category lists and things like that. If you notice something isn't getting updated that you expect to be updated, it could be that the job queue is backed up, very long, or something is broken.
 * The only way to deal with job queue problems is usually to use Special:Contact. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 9 Jul 2011 10:35 AM Pacific


 * For reasons I can no longer remember, we have a page with a fairly simplified explanation of the job queue at Admin Tools Wiki:Job queue. You’re more than welcome to read it. Thanks! — Spike  Toronto  08:12, July 10, 2011 (UTC)
