Well, thanks. I hope it is fixed eventually, because typically, if one
want to follow the contributions of a vandal or only a problematic user,
one can't be sure he reached all this person contributions if they are
mixed.

Contributions are not
sorted by date. So, I had to go back in time to find the recent ones.
Odd.
Not only contributions, the same bug seems to influence the article
history. Take a look here:
http://de.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=Vorlage:Hauptseite_Wikipedia_akt…
Something is or was sometimes not updating inverse_timestamp, which is
used to do the date sorting in history and contribs (because MySQL 3.x
couldn't optimize a descending sort on an index). I've fixed that
particular page, but the bug needs to be fixed if it's still there.
