Hello,
Today, I reviewed my (complete) watchlist. I found some strange,
non-existing pages on it:
ClockWorkNigger
George Wanker Bush
Pinux

I can't recall ever having encountered such pages. How could such items
have been added to my watchlist?
As far as I understand Mediawiki, this could have happened this way:
you have [[George Walker Bush]] on your watchlist.
a troll moves the page to [[George Wanker Bush]].
Mediawiki is keeping the Watchlist entry and adds a new one for the new
page on the old name.
If this gets reverted, the lists could mess up. This is likely an issue
to discuss on the tech-list. I wonder if an developer could falsify my
speculations.
