Today I moved the deletion log to [[Wikipedia:Deletion log archive/October 2004 (2)]] (as it had reached nearly a megabyte) and accidentally moved its talk page along with it. I moved the talk page back while leaving the archive in place, but that archive is a reflexive redirect whose only history entry is:
21:26, 21 Oct 2004 Mirv (Wikipedia:Deletion log moved to Wikipedia:Deletion log archive/October 2004 (2))
which means I've effectively destroyed all entries in the deletion log between October 11 (the time of its last archiving) and today. How did I do this? Where did the archive go? Can it be fixed or recovered?
