Correct -- someone tried to delete the pages in PmWiki/* (but one couln't
delete pages from wikilib.d so the pages just reappeared). When deleting pages
Notify has a bug and shows the last author instead of the current one who
deletes the page. In the distribution it happens that I18nVariables was last
edited by OliverBetz.
The bug is logged here:
