Forum:Missing Pages
I have encountered, now, two pages that we SHOULD have, that we have various links to, that you can find in a search, but which have been assigned default text:
The database did not find the text of a page that it should have found, named "Brewfest" .
This is usually caused by following an outdated diff or history link to a page that has been deleted.
If this is not the case, you may have found a bug in the software. Please report this to an administrator, making note of the URL.
It is *possible*, I suppose, that these pages don't *actually* have default text, that the database is simply rendering them to me (during action=edit) as if they had such text. But it sure looks like they've actually been given that text, since it isn't a redlink and doesn't appear in Special:WantedPages. More, I don't find Brewfest when I search for the word 'database'.
This really looks like some kind of structural failure of some sort, from the outside. --Eirik Ratcatcher (talk) 20:52, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
- Fixed Brewfest. What's the other page? --Pcj (T•C) 20:55, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
- The other page was Template:Operation: Gnomeregan, however, I did a copy/paste job on that one myself. The important thing is, I found two in only a short amount of nerfing around. How many more time bombs are there out there? These aren't new pages. What happened? --Eirik Ratcatcher (talk) 21:42, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
