Absence of a source is the usual cause for material disappearing; not that, even with a good source material, may be removed by someone with an agenda. Perhaps a note on the editing window about citing a source would help. When you first start editing you imagine that because you know something simply saying it is enough, particularly if you are expert in the field.
It does say, "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable." (with "verifiable" a link) at the top. However, I don't know how many people read this, and it could be clearer that really it's best to provide a citation right away (rather than it just being possible to add one).
