Description

I'm not sure what to write here but I can barely import pages (usually about five pages at a time). I have a ton of pages on my old wiki. I'm starting to lose interest maintaining my new wiki because I have to manually edit pages just so they'll show up in the correct categories.
The error:

After trying again, they've been added...

...but they aren't in even IN the correct categories:

Old wiki: (not looking forward to doing hummingbirds because there are so many species)

I don't know where to find this.

On Fandom it is on Special:Statistics (https://allbirdsoftheworld.fandom.com/wiki/Special:Statistics) after requesting a dump from them. Currently there is no dump on the Fandom wiki, so an admin on the fandom wiki must first request a dump so that we can import it. Thanks!
