Suggested edits count includes a user's own tag wiki edits

In review, I'm told there are 3 suggested edits for me to approve/reject/improve:

suggested edits shown when on another tab

It looks like that when I am on any tab except the suggested edits tab itself. But when I switch to the suggested edits tab, so that I can review edits, there's nothing there:

no suggested edits shown on the suggested edits tab

I switch back to any other tab, and I see that there are 3 suggested edits again. I switch back to the 3 suggested edits tab, and they edits are gone. So this is not caused just by the edits having been reviewed by someone else.

This happens in two separate browsers:

  • Chromium 18.0.1025.168 (Developer Build 134367 Linux) Ubuntu 11.10
  • Firefox 13.0.1.

Update: jokerdino has pointed out that these 3 suggested edits that I cannot review were my own tag wiki edit suggestions. That clarifies for me why this is occurring, but it still seems like a bug. Shouldn't the number of suggested edits listed in review for any user be the number of pending suggestions that user can review?
