This "Confirm Deletion" text keeps appearing sometimes when I log in. It's usually very brief, but I have no idea what might happen if my finger was on the wrong part of the screen.

This is on the mobile site, on a Chromium browser.

Keep refreshing the page or use the menu till it loads

I'm getting the same thing, on Linux with Firefox. On my faster PC, you can't see it. It's barely on the screen long enough to read on a slow one.

Yeah, it's been showing up for a while. If your device and connection is fast enough, it's gone almost as soon as it appears. I think it's just loading assets in the background. The text says confirm delete ? with nothing in front of the question mark, so there's nothing actually queued to delete. It shouldn't matter if you're quick enough to accidentally click it.

I don't think anyone would try to click that on purpose, but i can see it happening by accident.

Thanks for mentioning this - it's been bugging me even though it's probably harmless. A (I presume Java)script expert might know for sure whether there's a way to stop that box from showing itself - I presume there is, but whether it is worth chasing down might be another question.
 
I've seen something flash up there, but it's never been on long enough to more than barely realize something flashed.
