Lost something in the restore?

No, it wasn't the restore. It was somebody else who came along and deleted
those pages, perhaps in an attempt to clean things up.

BTW, it took me about 3 minutes to fix this by going through the history
of the 4 pages that were affected. Anybody could have done that. For a
wiki to function, the community members need to do these type of things.
So, the next time you see something like this, try to fix it. All versions
of a page are archived, so you can't really make things worse. If you
can't resolve the problem or it is on a large scale (such as the SPAM
bot), then you can e-mail swiki-bugs at cc.gatech.edu. E-mailing Mark is
useless. He'll just forward it to me, wasting his time and taking longer
for things to be resolved. 

Peace and Luck!
