    Few days ago I added a sitemap to my site. Now on webmaster tools page I see way more "Page not found" compared to when I did not had a sitemap. I checked those url, and they are not on the sitemap. Also traffic from SERPs dropped little.

    Anybody have any idea why its happening?

    I get this from time to time to, are these old existing pages? I find sometimes if you use test pages to test something they get crawled and later when not found produce this error.

    Those pages never existed on the site actually. Mostly the url+some query string which I never use on my site.
