[WikiEN-l] problems making changes

[steven l. rubenstein]

I have been having some problems that I do not understand -- I assume some 
people here are more experienced and knowledgeable about the technical 
workings of Wikipedia to figure it out.

I recently made an addition to the Supernaturalization talk page.  I also 
made a comment on the Supernatural talk page.  When I looked at my own 
"user contribution" page, next to the list of these most recent 
contributions was the word "rollback."

I went back to the articles and as "most recent changes" it had a deletion 
of the comments I added, and the user credited for the deletion was me, 
with the comments "reverted to last edit by Jackerie27" and "reverted to 
last edit by Mkmcconn.

I did not make these changes that are being ascribed to me, and I hope no 
one else is reverting them.  It certainly seems strange that what I add to 
pages now seems to be deleted automatically, and I am being labeled the 
deleter.  Is HAL 9000 acting up again?
