Wrong language

I followed an email link requesting that I translate the Most Important translations. My language code has always been cy. How has this changed to en-gb? Also, the usual interface was suggesting Welsh translations to me, no other language. Ho would my preferences have been changed? Then changed back?! Something's not right here.

Is there a bot which can change my edits to cy? Then delete en-gb?

When I edited yesterday and today (+700 edits), the top right had a 'Translate to Welsh'. Still has. Tried another edit now it's ok (cy). So turned it to en-gb and has now turned it back. Someone is messing around with my settings.

oops - 'So SOMEONE turned it to en-gb and has now turned it back to cy. '

No-one can change your language settings besides yourself. I checked a bunch of your new translations to see if moving would to cy would be possible but all checked translation exist in cy since years. So sadly I do have to mass-delete your translations into en-gb.

Thanks for your help. I logged in this morning, and got a message: 'Your language has now been changed from en-gb to Welsh. That confirms that my settings have been compromised. I've had many messages over the years that many attempts to log in under my name have happened. It seems this time someone has been successful. This is my last edit on translatewiki.net.
