mwasheim, i noted in the following https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lightning_Memory-Mapped_Database&oldid=630263579
these comments: "The following is a precaution against losing work by an editor who seems intent on destroying useful information."
you took a copy of a page that was actively being developed and reviewed and, through "passing judgement" without contacting any of the people whom you could _clearly_ see named and could have reached out to are long-time technical specialists and long-time contributors to wikipedia, managed to lose all the history of the edits that they made in between the time of the arbitrary, judgemental and "non-trusting" decision that you took.
was this an error of judgement on your part or an oversight that you are happy to have corrected?

Clearly an unintened side effect. As I noted, I was making a copy, including the edits I had contributed, to preserve them in the case that someone removed the article. I made all my changes entirely in the open. It was clear that the article required some work which I clearly was able and willing (although it can no doubt be improved) to do. As for passing judgement, the case of the article being deleted speaks for itself. I had noted later amendments to mine own and assumed all was well. Why should my copy have anything to do witht he original? I must admit, I may have made an error, but certainly unawares. I have, in the past, lost significant work when editors with as little as a difference of opionion on citations removed a days work. I could, if I were ignorant use reverts. But I prefer to state the case as I see it and do some work to overcome the criticisms which (as was the case here) are/were weak and should not have led to something as drastic as a take down.
If you could please explain what exactly I did that lost edits/history? In any case, the move done by 'Aperson' which overwrote (?)the original was not done by me. As I stated, the original (with take down notice) was still live after I made my copy. Then someone did aditional edits on the orignal, not on my own.
