You didn't check carefully - the edit history shows that the image was last updated in March, when, in fact, the pornographic image has only been in place for a few hours. Or do you think that it would have been left on my user page for months with no one commenting on it?
The edit history that I see at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Pub.jpg shows a 19 February version uploaded by you, a pornographic version uploaded by an impostor today, and reverts by GMaxwell and TenOfAllTrades.
The impostor is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:StirIing_Newberry with capital I in place of the lowercase l.
It is possible that the edit history was confused by delays in syncing the slave database. That is, for a while after the porno version was uploaded, it was the current version of the image, and appeared on the page, but the image history was being read off the slightly out-of-date slave database.
Does that make sense?
Yes actually it does. Post updated with a direct quote of this.
