Topic: Strange edit history

Posted under General

I looked through the changes tab in my account; and I found edits I don’t remember making, and some of the edits I do remember show me adding & removing tags that I know I didn’t touch.
What’s going on? Is the site misattributing things to me, or something.

I’m leaving this in the general category because I don’t know where else to put it.

Thank you for assisting me in this matter.

We do seem to get these questions on occasion, don't we? :p

Don't worry. This is expected behavior. The reason is that the system makes aliases and implications when requests are approved, but doesn't have anyone to credit them to on a post until someone makes an edit on it. When you saved your own edits, the system finally had a way to record the changes, basically giving you some free tag changes. You're good.
