Had a bit of difficulty with this one and figured I'd try to save you folks the hassle.
Clearing the temple of Melandru alone won't clear the HP statue (near the temple of grenth) of it's contested status. It wasn't until all the temples were cleansed that the maps worth of uncleansed statues were corrected. You have to cleanse all temples for the Melandru HP to cleanse. For me at the time it was only the Melandru temple and Grenth temple, but all the uncleansed statues on the map were cleared after the last temple was cleared
