::: These things happen. I got bit by this too and it was only after I checked, double-checked, and triple-checked that I concluded my template changes were correct, and something else was amiss. I found a "fix" to the caching problem, which can be applied on a page-by-page basis: you can force the page to update by using the "purge" action. One easy way to do this is to "View history" on the page. Then edit the URL shown to change "action=history" to "action=purge". That will force the page to update. Quite painful for the whole site, but usable if only a few pages were affected. I'll post again if I find an easier way to do this.

:::: Nice, i found this on stackexchange about methods of purging multiple articles at once: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25597846/purging-all-pages-in-mediawiki. There's some documentation about some of the methods at https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Purge#See_also. I'll post on BetaNotus's and Extractum11's talk pages to see if they can help with this.
