This is a tracking category, a category intended to build and maintain a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. Rather than being part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme, these categories are used to track, for example, pages using deprecated syntaxes, to maintain a list of pages that may need to be edited en masse later, or to aggregate the members of several sub-categories by other classifications into one larger list.

This is a Tractor Wiki maintenance category.
This category is automatically populated by the template {{Category redirect}}. Category pages that feed the first parameter to those boxes in the wrong way are put in this category. This is so we can easily find those pages and fix them.
The most common fixes that need to be done are:
- Misspelling the category name. For instance
{{Category redirect|Writres}}
should be changed to{{Category redirect|Writers}}
. - Redirecting to a category page that has not yet been created. Fix it by clicking the red link in the redirect box and create the category page. Be sure to check that it isn't just a misspelled or misnamed link.
If some case is too tricky or a category page is protected so you can't edit it, don't worry. More experienced editors and admins will work through the cases that get left in this category.
MediaWiki runs updates of category listings (as the one you see below) as a low priority job. Thus if the servers are very busy it can take some days before a category is removed from the list below, even though the category page has been fixed. But normally it is removed within a day.
Sometimes you need to purge a page to see your change of a {{Category redirect}} box and to get rid of this category from the bottom of a page.
For more about this see wikipedia:Template talk:Category redirect#Template should redirect to category, not article.
