Comments disappeared from the August Booth page a minute age. Someone who's name had hat in it somewhere had asked what we should do with the information from last night's episode. Specifically he wondered if we should create a second Pinocchio page. I replied with my opinion about how the page's should be set up. There were also a couple anon comments that didn't belong on the page.

I then went to Pinocchio's page to check something, and then went back to the August page to add another comment about the overall issue with the page. When I hit the post button all of a sudden there were no comments on the page at all. They'd all been wiped. The off-topic ones, the on-topic ones. My previous comment and the comment that I was adding. Everything was gone. As in even gone from my contrib list.

What on earth happened? And why is there a set-up where stuff can be removed and not show in the page history or the history of the contributers? That seems very un-wiki to me.
