|description = Purge is a function that tells the server to clear its cache for a page. This causes the server to rebuild the page completely, which can be used to update the page in case it is outdated or not showing correctly. Purging can be used when a template that is being used on a page gets changed. Because the server caches pages for better performance, the page that is using the template may appear to continue showing the old version of the template. This can be fixed by editing the page, which will cause the server to rebuild it when you save the edit. The purge function can be used to achieve the same effect without having to edit the page.
