You dont need some1 to restore anything there btw, you can easily do it yourself as well. Anyway, i think it would be best if the wiki's administrator would put the frontpage in protected mode again.

It is not funny anymore having to remove various med ads and porn banners from it like 5 times a day =/ What do there jokers hope to accomplish anyway? That we actually click on their faulty links? Man, those ppl are so dumb, if they hope for visits, the least they could do in check out how to properly create links in a wiki system

- - -Well, I'm not familiarized with the modification of the wikipedia. Is there some kind of recover function I can use the next time I see the same shit happening again?

I didnt find a recover setting, but I'm sure there is a way to restore a previous version from the version history. What I did in the past was to just look at the history and cut and paste everything into it's edit.

- - -Ahhhh... good to know it has a log of the past versions of the page, I'll have it in mind for the next time, thanks for the info :keke:

The sysadmin actually has the power to do a rollback and lock the page down (which at this point I think is a great idea at least for the main page). What's the best way to get in touch with the Wiki admin (do we know?)?
