I found about ten occurences of duplicate article

cur db
while processing dump.
Two consecutive entries with exactly the same title field, both
namespace 0.
See three examples (article text omitted, was entirely different
between the
two versions).
Is there an explanation for this?
I've noticed that some time ago on the German Wikipedia, too. I
discussed it with JeLuF on #de.wikipedia, and our explanation - IIRC
- was the following:
If someone is impatient and clicks several times on "save" while
creating a new article, this article will be stored several times in
the cur_table.
Sorry, I forgot to add:
"But that's not an explaination for duplicate articles with different
text. At least, in my opinion..."
If only one of these gets edited later on, or both are edited on a
random basis, might explain it.
