[[OSM:Notifier.signup confirm html.user wiki page/en]]

Okay, This patch is not worked (or i don't understand this...).

Following messages is translations, and they create category links (I found them through Special:WantedCategories)...

Also I seen that some these obsoleted messages is excluded from translations (as I understood it), and they are again clog the Special:WantedCategories. These:

MediaWiki:Catdown-category-contains-namespace/de

I are fixed code for many of these, but maybe need to purge these messages?

Maybe also these old pages also may be removed?

I'd say you did not fix the code, you broke it. The OSM messages are not wikitext, and you cannot "fix" them by applying wikitext syntax. Osm:Notifier.signup confirm html.user wiki page is a HTML-formatted message which should display a piece of wikitext code the user could copy&paste to his/her new wiki userpage. By replacing the categorization wikitext with a colon-delimited link, you broke the message completely. I reverted your changes to the cs translations.

Thank you for your comment, I was afraid of this effect. But please check - _these_ really working messages, or is it outdated? Please compare in edit mode Osm:Notifier.signup_confirm_html.user_wiki_page/cs and Osm:Activerecord.models.acl/cs, as example. Only second message has interface elements of the translate system. I would never spoil the working messages!

Not sure what you mean by that Activerecord.models.acl reference, I don’t see anything interesting there.

However, you might be right that the Osm:Notifier.signup_confirm_html.user_wiki_page message is no longer used in production OSM, the current welcome message does not include it, and I don’t think it could appear somewhere else, but I can’t be sure. If the message is indeed no longer used, it could/should probably be removed from the OSM source code altogether.
