On deleting a page all properties of that page are rundown and any pages sharing those properties are updated. Given all the articles I have on my wiki when I delete an article this generates thousands of jobs and for mass deletes tens of thousands. This is excessive and is preempting jobs that do need to run to maintain data integrity.

According to https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/issues/2453 addresses the issue only updating the pages that reference the deleted page versus all that share the property. The fix is in Semantic Mediawiki 2.5.3 so I'm planning to upgrade prior to incorporating my tranactional content for the upcoming election. There will be lots of deletes.

Came up with a circumvention. Saving in case it shows up again.Web References https://github.com/SemanticMediaWiki/SemanticMediaWiki/issues/2453

Plan to move current wiki to archive and update production wiki in place. That way I have a Wiki I can fall back on if upgrade fails.
