Can a moderator/staff member restore lost info for a character's page??
Someone has sent me a PM informing me that information has gone missing from Wolverine's profile page. Apparently, when someone added details about Earth-616 Wolverine, they accidentally erased everything else. That includes powers, alternate realities, TV, film & game appearances, etc.
However, that person who added all that detail forgot this little thing call FORMATTING! Approximately 50% of the page is now one giant paragraph without any headers, sub-titles, images or links. It will most likely give you a stigmatism or make you go short-sighted if you even attempt to read it.
It needs removing. Or at least the old information about powers, etc needs restoring. Please HELP!

thanks for the info XK
I don't know enough info on Wolvie to re-write the page. I've been slowly tidying up his galleries as there are a lot of duplicate images. That's the only reason I appear as the second highest contributor to his page (it's also the reason why I don't think adding pictures should give you points).
Also, I figured if anyone else found other problem pages, they could use this thread.

well i said in that PM that dude sent us that iv got back up info for that page because other pages were getting deleted and because me and a lot of people had put alot of work into that page so i did'nt want it to go to waste but it worth a good couple of thousand points so im going to wait until i get the green light to put it in.
You & I were the only people included in that PM because we're top contibutors to that page. It is only by chance that you have a back-up. I've posted this thread because it is pointless leaving the page looking like a giant column of text. Half way down the page it becomes one huge paragraph."well i said in that PM that dude sent us that iv got back up info for that page because other pages were getting deleted and because me and a lot of people had put alot of work into that page so i did'nt want it to go to waste but it worth a good couple of thousand points so im going to wait until i get the green light to put it in.

I have seen threads like this before and the pages have been rectified with a roll-back. That is why I made this thread, like I suggested in the PM.

True, but comparing info is pretty difficult on a page the size of Wolverine's. Also, this isn't my problem. It was something that someone else PMed me about."you can also look at the wiki history to find lost info "
Hello, I was glancing on the Emma Frost profile page a few days ago to see if there had been any update. Well, there had been. The section on Dark Reign had been greatly expanded, but for some reason all pre-Utopia information had disappeared. It's not that this update was a bad thing, but there was no reason to delete all her past information into some kind of Cliff Notes version.
