Here you wiped off most of the article. Please be more careful. Materialscientist (talk) 01:59, 23 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

You are right and I am baffled, because I cannot find out what happened. But hat tip, you are quick.Dominiklenne (talk) 20:37, 23 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

@materialscientist: I analyzed the browser history database and it shows AFAICS what I remembered - that I did edit the article via the edit-section-link, not via the edit-article-tab-link. Something must have gone wrong with saving the edits. Dominiklenne (talk) 13:54, 24 October 2012 (UTC)Reply
