How to use "Being"

It appears that the writer is incorporating an elliptical clause--
"This is a page (which is) being posted back to itself."
The writer has dropped the 'which is' and left the main verb there.

If you said only "This is a page posted back to itself,"
you leave out the idea that someone is doing the posting, I think.
