వికీపీడియా:Bypass your cache
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Your web browser saves bandwidth by saving many parts of the site in its local cache (normally on your hard drive), so that they are downloaded only once. This includes articles you've previously viewed, images previously displayed, style sheets, JavaScript, etc.
ఈ వ్యాసాన్ని పూర్తిగా అనువదించి, తరువాత ఈ మూసను తీసివేయండి. అనువాదం చేయాల్సిన వ్యాస భాగం ఒకవేళ ప్రధాన పేరుబరిలో వున్నట్లయితే పాఠ్యం సవరించు నొక్కినప్పుడు కనబడవచ్చు. అనువాదం పూర్తయినంతవరకు ఎర్రలింకులు లేకుండా చూడాలంటే ప్రస్తుత ఆంగ్ల కూర్పుని, భాషల లింకుల ద్వారా చూడండి(అనువాదకులకు వనరులు) |
Sometimes, this has the undesired – and a highly confusing – result that a recent change appears to be ignored. There may be other abnormalities, such as changes to the site's interface or changed user preferences having no effect.
Wikipedia also saves bandwidth and servers' load by using caching reverse proxy. Sometimes, this causes a few undesirable side effects due to bugs, glitches (or design) of the software and may cause that, especially with complex or highly edited page, a recent change may appear to be ignored.
When you encounter strange behavior,
- Please first try instructing your browser to bypass the cache so that the whole webpage is reloaded even if there is a cached (by the browser) copy. Normally, revisiting the cached page, or clicking "Refresh" or "Reload", will cause the browser to ask the Web site if there is a newer version available, downloading only if there is; the instructions hereafter explain how to cease this behavior.
- If this is not enough, then try resetting the proxy server cache ("purge"); the instructions hereafter explain how to do this.
Do this before reporting the problem. If the problem persists, report it at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical).
In unusual circumstances, it may be worth clearing the entire cache, or – at the extreme – to disable browser caching entirely. Clearing the cache might help the browser perform better if it has cached many items which are unlikely to be viewed soon. Disabling the cache is a non-desirable long-term solution however, as it downloads everything from a Web site every time, even if you've just glanced at them and they haven't changed. Disabling the cache is nonetheless a useful experiment in determining whether or not caching contributes to a problem.
