This could be automatic. I noticed this myself because I corrected
both typos in english and german wikipedia; sometimes they are
reverted, sometimes not. There seems no logic in it, so I assumed

reverting something.

- NordStreamYacht 3mo agoDon't know, don't care. Wikipedia is not a major source of information for me any more, the summaries from various search engines are enough. For everything else there's grok.
