What happened to Deletionpedia?
I'm presuming you're Jeff G. from deletionpedia.

The main page doesn't load anymore. A lot of pages only load if you go to the viewing history and view the most recent version. Though some pages like Reddcoin appear to remain intact. Do you know what's going on? Also, the site appears to have forgotten my contributions: the site records [https://deletionpedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Guaka&oldid=235893#Am_i_allowed_to_copy_candidates_for_Speedy_Deletion_to_this_site_if_i_attribute_the_creator? a comment I left on Guaka's talk page] under the username "Koopinator" but Special:Contributions/Koopinator yields nothing.

 * Also pinging in case he's still here (though he hasn't contributed in 3 years)
 * Going by page histories, it seems all records of contributions except those of Guaka have been wiped from the site.
 * The site appears to have stopped working in February 2023. Koopinator (talk) 16:12, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I used the waybackmachine to gather more info. From what I'm gathering, this is all an attempt by Guaka to silently and slowly leave the internet:
 * 23 July 2020: Last English Wikipedia edit by Guaka
 * c. November 2020 - March 2021 (possibly in Q1 2021 assuming simultaneous purge of contact lists): Guaka's contact form on guaka.org is down
 * c. January 2021 - April 2022 (possibly in Q1 2021 assuming simultaneous purge of contact lists): Guaka's contact form on kasper.re is down
 * 13 February 2022: After not making any edits to any Wikimedia projects for 9 months, Guaka returns to make edits to 5 different non-English Wikipedias in order to blank or trim them. Most of these edits are to his own userpages.
 * 7 May 2022: Guaka's last known edit on Deletionpedia, altering CSS. Does not appear to have impacted the site's functioning.
 * February 2023: Main page stops loading

 * @Koopinator: Hi again. Sadly, multiple sites run by Guaka are still down after upgrade accidents, despite multiple efforts by multiple people to try to get them running again. I last heard from that very busy user in June 2023. If you had email enabled with a valid address, you would probably be able to email that user via Special:EmailUser/Guaka.  — Jeff G. ツ 06:40, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
