I assume you mean you write on the paper pre-process and you see it in the dark area post process. (Without stacking them.) If so, this is emulsion pressure sensitivity. 

Solutions:
Try using softer lead pencil
Don't push as hard when writing.
Use a sharpie.
Tell Ilford they have an emulsion sensitivity problem.

Oh, BTW, are the numbers in the dark area lighter or darker?

I would be honored to have this list named pure_shannon. That's a great idea. ;-)
OK, back to the darkroom. I have switched back to Ilford paper and I'm noticing something I didn't notice before. When I write on the back of the paper with a pencil (exposure times, etc) it sometimes shows through on the other side, particularly in the dark areas. Why does this happen, and how do people avoid it?
