"unknown contributor"

This seems like possibly a bug I have found - but it is NOT something I can consistently replicate - its merely something I have seen periodically on rare occasions over the months.

When a memories item is person tagged - there is a way to tell who the person was who person tagged the item - by clicking on the "gear" icon of the tag.
on multiple occasions I have initially seen a name ( I recognize) as the person tagger
and then gone back a few minutes later - only to see that the name I initially saw - no longer displays and in its place is the phrase "unknown contributor"

A specific example of this was today
when I viewed the last (uncompleted) tag on this item:
https://www.familysearch.org/memories/memory/214274162?cid=mem_copy

Why would it show a valid name one time - and then show "unknown contributor" a few minutes later???

    @Beth Ann W this looks like the strange behaviour we were discussing here:

    Did you get anywhere with taking it to the engineers?

    sure seems like it may be related.

    But I am referring to comments made on a memories item
    not the change log on a FS tree profile.
