Abstract
Cataclysmic variables are among the photometrically most unstable stars in the zoo of stellar objects, exhibiting light variations on all time-scales between millennia and seconds. The literature is full of reports on variable phenomena which often require independent confirmation before they can be accepted as established facts. In this contribution I investigate accounts on miscellaneous variable features observed in six cataclysmic variables, drawing for this purpose largely on archival data, most of which have not been investigated in detail in the past, and complementing these data with some new observations. This enabled to confirm and expand upon some hitherto unconfirmed features in the light curves of these star, as well as the rejection of some others, while in still other cases an unambiguous answer to questions arising from previous papers was not possible.
