How can Category:Gallery pages with a wrong format be removed from Help:Biology wikidata glossary?

How can Category:Gallery pages with a wrong format be removed from Help:Biology wikidata glossary as a parent? The format is OK now (User:Prototyperspective have moved it to the Help format) and he already removed this parent category, but it still is popping up. JopkeB (talk) 12:41, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

@JopkeB: it is presumably on one or more of the pages that are included there in their entirety, all of which are still in gallery space. - Jmabel ! talk 18:32, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks @Jmabel: . I renamed Biology wikidata glossary/Double Taxonomic Wikidata Items, and gave a Hard purge to Help:Biology wikidata glossary and now it is gone. Problem solved. JopkeB (talk) 05:50, 7 January 2025 (UTC)
