The messages were left for other people who were using Google Web Accelerator when they edited. You see their messages because you have the same IP address.
If you create your own account, you won't keep seeing this. You can make an account at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Userlogin

Your IP address indicates that you accessed wikipedia from Google Inc. (64.233.173.81). I don't know whether you are an employee of theirs or whether you are using some Google ISP or redirecting service. In either case, it is likely that your IP address was either supplied by a DHCP server or by a Network Address Translation (NAT) gateway.
Every time you attach to the network the DHCP server gives you an IP address from a pool of IP addresses that are shared between all of the currently attached users. If you disconnect, someone else may get the address which you are no longer using. When you reconnect you are likely to get a different address. There is also a good chance that the address you are given is a locally administered or private address. You can determine this by opening a console window and typing "ipconfig" - if your IP address starts "10." or "172.16. to 172.31." or 192.168." then your address is only locally significant. A NAT gateway will translate your local IP address into an external address (allocated from the pool owned by Google Inc.) when you access destinations outside your local domain. The address allocated by the NAT gateway may change from session to session and may be used by other people at other times (or even simultaneously).
I hope this isn't too much information. You can dig deeper by looking up DHCP and NAT in wikipedia.
