I need help. I already registered at this Wiki and made 1 or 2 edits, but I had to re-register because this wiki was acting like my account didn't exist. My earlier registration isn't in your user creation log. Worse, the edit I remember making has 100% disappeared from the page history of the character. What the hell is happening?

: Well, [http://blog.battlestarwiki.org/2008/06/07/update-on-mysql-crash/ this happened]. Unfortunately, five days of data was lost because of database corruption... it's a technical issue that shouldn't happen again.

How can such a thing happen? Five whole days of editing, gone... I heard this happened once at Memory Alpha. What safeguards are in place to prevent whole wikis from being lost? Also, the link you provided said it affected all wikis, but nothing seems to have gone wrong at my primary watering hole, [http://24.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page Wiki 24]. Were Wikia wikis exempt?

Problem with the wiki
I need help. I already registered at this Wiki and made 1 or 2 edits, but I had to re-register because this wiki was acting like my account didn't exist. My earlier registration isn't in your user creation log. Worse, the edit I remember making has 100% disappeared from the page history of the character. What the hell is happening?
