James,

After a user pointed me to your message and asked if it would help in
her circumstance, I found that the syntax you have doesn't focus only on
one category.

Specifically, --categories: "Will refresh only category pages (and other
explicitly named namespaces)" as [1] says.  This means the
[[Category:...]] pages themselves, not the pages in the category.

Which means that you have to use this form, instead:

    php rebuildData.php -v --query="[[Category:Some category name]]" 
--skip-properties
