  Perhaps the article was popular. Perhaps it got a lot of views via social network sharing. Please post an active link starting with http:// to the article in question.

  Those views all came from one visitor. It looks like a combination of a search engine bot glitching out on the page and the fact that we had not yet identified it as such.

  thank you for your reply. Sadly I don’t know what ‘bot glitching’ means, is it something that can be fixed ? And how do I subscribe to the Staff follow-up topics ?

  No, this cannot be corrected after the fact, but it shouldn’t happen again.
