First of all, forgive me if I'm on the wrong mailing list or asking in the wrong place. I couldn't really find anywhere to ask about what's happening. I'm not a regular contributor but lurks a lot :)
Some changes I've added just prior to the power failure aren't appearing in the main article, while there seems to be records in the history, requests for diff returns database errors.
My particular case was an article on MB boardgame en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Crusade
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Space_Crusade&action=history Changes on 21/02/2005 are all missing :(
It's no big deal if this can't be recovered, I'll just write again :) But I'm curious whether this is the only case.

I see these, and diffs for them all appear intact: ▪ (cur) (last) 07:59, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 ▪ (cur) (last) 07:58, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 ▪ (cur) (last) 07:48, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 (→External Links) ▪ (cur) (last) 07:46, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 (→Eldar Attack) ▪ (cur) (last) 07:46, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 (→Operation Dreadnaught) ▪ (cur) (last) 07:43, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 (→Operation Dreadnaught) ▪ (cur) (last) 07:36, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180 (→Eldar Attack) ▪ (cur) (last) 07:34, Feb 21, 2005 218.214.32.180

Yes, I checked that right after the mail and discover the diffs are working. (should have check before, my mistake).
Something that still puzzles me though, the current page
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Crusade
Isn't showing the latest 'current' according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Space_Crusade&action=history
I keep wondering whether it's a cache issue somewhere on my end...

Since we had the site up in read-only mode while the databases were being updated, some pages may have older versions stuck in the cache. You can try forcing it to update like this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_Crusade?action=purge
