What you're seeing is an issue with caching of old data. We've had a long, long project of updating the rep points to reflect changes in rep policies (modified limits, new ways to score points etc) and as a bonus this recalc will fix an issue whereby removal of some points was not being reflected in overall scores.
As part of a quick fix we made it that certain events will trigger a resync of points, and so that's what would have happened with you. The underlying points were correct, but your published total was more than it should have been.

In your ample spare time...
For most fora, which get a lot of traffic (C#, Lounge, etc.), I like the Show setting of "Last Week"; for others, which get less traffic (Algorithms, Hall of Shame, etc.), I'd prefer a longer time span (Last Month), but it seems that we have one setting for all fora, see if you can do something about that.
(Or don't; I'll survive.)

I'm afraid I'm going to put that in the "rainy day" basket.

That's fine. At least you're not here in Phoenix.

This Q&A post brought the issue to my attention: Trying to create an Article Book mark[^].
I checked it and every article I looked at no longer had the option to add a bookmark to it.
Is there something I've overlooked?
Regards,
Manfred

Above the license area in the upper right hand of the article do you no longer see the star icon with the green addition sign on it?

Thanks for your quick reply!
And yes, 
the link is there where you said it was, though I'd swear that it had been somewhere else before. 
OK, thanks again! You can mark this as fixed then.
Cheers!

Me too; wasn't it down near the stars and the other little icons?

AFAIR, this goes 2 years back. Here: Cannot Bookmark Article...[^]
As I mentioned to Manfred, this was a change when the UI was revamped. (almost 2 years back... woooo!)

The trouble is that unless you use these features every day you can never recall where they truly were last time.

Shite! If that ain't a sign that I'm growing old. Remembering a trivial detail like that and not noticing that it changed two years ago already.

Hi newton.saber,
It looks like you've saved a draft of something you were working on, but not published it. Is the "new version of the currently published article" the one you wish to see live? (the article that is in "Draft" mode)
Thanks,

As a follow up to Sean, we're reworking some of the notices that appear on the articles to make it clearer, especially in the case of (auto-saved) Draft articles.

Thanks for looking into this. I noticed that the version info. changed again though I have done nothing. I'm just going to leave it in its current state until I understand that it needs to be changed.
Thanks again for the help.

Sure. If you can delete them, please do it.
Just make sure do not accidentally delete my other articles.
