Description notingram 2010-11-20 22:07:41 UTC 
A date -- 3600-3000 BC -- in the article on "megalithic temples of Malta" has been turned by your software into a Skype phone number.  My guess is that this happens on other sites as well.  I thought you should know.

That is caused by the broken skype toolbar not mediawiki.

> That is caused by the broken skype toolbar not mediawiki.

To be more clear to the bug reporter: You, or someone who edited the article in question, has installed the Skype toolbar for Firefox. Unfortunately, this toolbar decides to convert everything it sees into a Skype phone number. Including editable text fields. If you installed the toolbar, you should uninstall it; otherwise, if you come across instances of Skype phone numbers in articles, use the page history to find who added it, and tell them to uninstall the toolbar.
