Paper disappeared - and my rating as well

Strange things occurring in the "papers" category: my paper entitled "the capacitance multiplier revisited" has disappeared, and my vote rating has been erased. Any insight ?

We think everything is back now. For more information, see this post. If you notice anything else that's gone missing, please let us know. Sorry about the inconvenience! We will investigate why our "apply deltas" process missed things. Fortunately, we have a complete backup from right before the change was applied, so nothing is truly lost -- if we have to retrieve anything else, we will.

Various things are still missing. All the answers to https://electrical.codidact.com/questions/279585 is one obvious example. Note that the question list says "3 answers" (which seems correct from memory), but there are none in the question itself.

I also agree with @Olin on this particular question.

@OlinLathrop the missing answers have been restored. We made a broader sweep, so should have gotten any other missing answers too; please let us know if anything else is missing.

@MonicaCellio Votes are still missing. https://electrical.codidact.com/questions/279484 is one concrete example, but I wouldn't rule out the existence of other cases. I mentioned this at https://meta.codidact.com/a/279504/279560.

@Canina looking into missing votes, thanks.

Monica Cellio‭ wrote over 3 years ago

@Canina our devs checked and report there are no missing votes on that page.

@MonicaCellio That's odd; that must mean that multiple people retracted their votes between Nov 28 23:34:07 UTC and whenever exactly Codidact was taken offline for the second time. Not saying it can't have happened that way, of course, but it still sounds moderately unlikely to me. In either case, thanks for the feedback, that is appreciated!

@Canina I just came across a problem with votes that left a trail, so I've reported that to devs for investigation.
