Is anyone else having terrible lag times when trying to delete articles? Quite a while back I noticed that if I don't get the confirmation screen within three seconds, I won't get it at all. If it takes longer than three seconds, what will happen instead is that it eventually times out and I get a message that the Wikipedia server didn't respond to the request. Usually, when the first try doesn't get a response within three seconds, I'll click stop and re-click confirm. The deletion usually occurs on the second or third try.
Tonight has been horrible. I must have tried at least 15 times before I was able to delete [[Dermapigmentation]] (content was "tasha"). So far I've managed to delete three articles listed on [[Category:Candidates for speedy deletion]] but the rest of them are going to sit there. It is too much trouble trying to delete because of the horrible lag / time-out issue.
Anyone else having the same problem?
