If you want to reduce the risk of this happening again, depending on how 
recent you XWiki is, there is an option you can enable in xwiki.cfg:

xwiki.language.forceSupported=1

Then, you can configure a list of languages that your wiki supports in 
the Administration->General->Languages, and the wiki will force one of 
these languages to be used.
