(was QuestionHowIsSomeoneDeletingAllTraceOfPages)


h2. Update 12 July 2005

We are getting hammered big time by a spambot...all pages are being changed to contain all kinds of perverted crap!
I see two ips that cold be banned:80.59.94.23, 80.58.3.42

Me and Andrea have been working against the bot for a while now, buyt its getting boring...
Could someone ban those ips??

I've recovered everything I could from my most recent backup, and am about to start on the XML data AndreaSchweer kindly provided.

It appear, though, that neither of us have pages _created_ in the first three of the last four days (May 14-16).  So if anybody has a backup they'd like to share, that would be great.  Also. if any of you know what happened, I'd sure be interested...

Also 80.59.91.33, 80.58.51.235...

h2. Update 17 May 2005

I have determined (by a dark roasted blend of the above mentioned RSS feed, google, wget & ruby scripting) that the following pages probably had changes which were lost durring the rollback (I've excluding the ones that I fixed this morning).

I have the revised text (but not the changes), and will started trying to recover them as time permits.  Anybody interested in helping out is welcome (comment here or drop me a WikiMail).

h2. Update 18 May 2005

I'm not getting to this in a timely manner.  I have  "posted the lost pages in HTML":http://www.reality.com/roberts/markus/software/ruby/rails/wiki/rubyonrails_recovery.html (which is all I have to work from).  If you think something important was lost, feel free to grab & wikify it.  If you get a page completely restored, please remove it from the list above.
