Hi :)
Yes, it's just that i am totally paranoid and tend to keep excessive back-ups.  

On the Joomla wiki one of their admins decided to delete a couple of my pages 
because they didn't want practical advice with screen-shots of how to use 
Joomla in real-world cases using 3rd party hosts in case that might be 
construed as "advertising" or seen as Joomla endorsing those 3rd party hosting 
services.  Wikipedia and many other encyclopedias have articles about many 
mutually exclusive beliefs but i 
doubt anyone thinks Wikipedia is endorsing or advertising those beliefs.  The 
Joomla people don't see it that way.  

It's only admins that have that sort of power and everywhere else except Joomla 
they seem to take care to be reasonable or at least to understand the nature of 
wikis.
Regards from
Tom :)

There is version management built into MediaWiki, allowing easy
restoration of previous versions of pages, file uploads, etc., and TDF
is pretty diligent taking regular in server backups, so not too many
worries there.
