Actually, I was the culprit. I changed from a Linux Mint LMDE version to a server running Enterprise Ubuntu cloud. Also, yes php and Mysql all changed. I actually own the hardware. Just made an error and had to find my own solution. However I had that same problem with a server running debian on a CloudShards VPS server, when they decided to arbitrarily move the mediawiki to another piece of hardware, and didn't tell me. That is why I no longer use them LOL. BTW had I not saved several backups of the database, I would have been really screwed.

Did they change your version of php?

Sounds a bit like an issue I had a month ago when moving from one hardware setup to another. 
Database issue.  Try resavin g the editing content of the main page, just as though you were 
making it for the first time. I.E. Cut the content then past it back into the page and save 
it. If thast rtestores the main page  then try running the command;"php  
refreshLinks.php" from the maintenance directory of mediawiki. This will take a while 
& I suggest doing it in a root terminal using sudo.
This is what worked for me, but just a suggestion. best of luck.

Hi Everyone,

My MediaWiki site at:

http://wiki.tchaikovsky-research.net/wiki/Main_Page

has suddenly started Io fail in a bizarre way, i.e.  sections of some page 
content are not displaying. Some pages are fine, others have words or sections 
missing, and many more (like the homepage) have no visible content. The content 
still exists and can be edited, but just isn't displaying.

No changes have been made to the MediaWiki set up for months, and this has only 
happened during the last 2 days.  My hosting ISP is being unhelpful, although I 
suspect they may be at fault. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
