I tried to create the ETOH article at Wikipedia, and after submitting, it said the article didn't exist. I tried going to the article itself in a new window and it still said it didn't exist yet. I tried creating it a second time, again submitted, and again it said the article didn't exist, so I gave up. Now, in my contributions page, I see this: # 17:01, 2005 Jan 4 (hist) (New) m ETOH (R from abbreviation.) (top) # 16:55, 2005 Jan 4 (hist) (New) m ETOH (Redirect from abbreviation.) (top) The article's own history only shows the 17:01 one. The server was being incredibly slow at the time, timing out and so on (as I tried to log in, to edit, to preview, to submit; basically everything). Is this some sort of race condition caused by slow interaction between the webserver, database, caches, or some other component?
