Description

Author: puglisi

Description:
An article history ([[:it:Piero Angela]]) was truncated when someone edited it.
The article now only has the section edited by the last user. Relevant entries
from recent changes page:

(diff) (cron) . . mN Piero Angela; 13:28 . . Andrea.gf (Discussione)
(diff) (cron) . . m Piero Angela; 13:09 . . Hellisp (Discussione)

The article was marked as NEW in the second edit, and a look at the
article history shows it as truncated to these two entries. Could it be
some master/slave issue between the database servers?

Version: 1.6.x
Severity: major

The history of the article in question was recovered by an admin using this
procedure:

delete the page
recover the deleted edits using the new 1.4 interface

So it seems that the "old" table was not really affected, just some references
to it.

Similar problem (page move) on http://bg.wiktionary.org. A user moves a talk
page http://bg.wiktionary.org/wiki/User_talk:Antonio to
http://bg.wiktionary.org/wiki/Talk:Азис, and the talk page dissapears, redlinks,
as if non existant. I tried to repeat the bug moving another page, but didn't
"work".

Recovered the text of the talk page from the RC-diff links
http://bg.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=%D0%9F%D0%BE%D1%82%D1%80%D0%B5%D0%B1%D0%B8%D1%82%D0%B5%D0%BB_%D0%B1%D0%B5%D1%81%D0%B5%D0%B4%D0%B0:Atchernev&curid=59&diff=11359&oldid=10796
but the history is not there, on neither of the pages.

For some reason the page was incorrectly stored (ns=0, title='Беседа:Азис').
I've moved it to:
http://bg.wikiquote.org/w/index.php?title=Беседа:Азис/broken&action=history

Sorry I mistakenly wrote 'wiktionary' where it should be 'wikiquote'. Thanks for
having recovered the page. --Petko

Presumably an old bad language file. Data was recovered, closing FIXED.
