Indexed pages (637 P, 1 F)index-categoryThe page has a __INDEX__ on it (and is in a namespace where that flag is allowed), and hence is indexed by robots where it normally wouldn't be.

Noindexed pages (55,099 C, 1,898,297 P, 772,867 F)noindex-categoryThe page is not indexed by robots because it has the magic word __NOINDEX__ on it and is in a namespace where that flag is allowed.
