It has sporadically occurred perhaps a dozen times this past year at English
Wiktionary, sometimes affecting many users over many hours or a few days,
sometimes for shorter intervals or for fewer users. It may be the product of
something Wiktionary-specific as there has been lots of tinkering going on, by
persons are varying technical capabilities, all however having capabilities
exceeding mine. 

We seem to have some very ambitious ways of handling languages and scripts
because of the peculiar needs of a dictionary that seeks to include "all words
in all languages" in the native scripts of each. But use of very large
Lua/Scribunto modules and data table has improved loading performance of
entries such as that for "water". I don't know in what technical ways we differ
peculiarly from other wikis, even from other wiktionaries. 

You are stuck with my naive reporting because those more capable seem to get
more frustrated in dealing with WM.
