Both an entry A48970173 and my space U566116 are intermittently being yikesed by an unseen force. This happened before to my space and was apparently a bug - is this one too?

Looks OK to me too, Alex.
How often have you seen it yikesed, then?

Is it still happening? I haven't seen either yikesed each time I've checked.

The entry is fine, your PS is hidden, though.

There's a bug on some PSs, including mine, so that every time they're edited they're automatically pulled.
And a hidden entry doesn't have a forum, so the message centre goes too.
There's a worse variant for some PSs, including mine, which means that when the Eds restore the PS, the message centre remains hidden, and the technical staff need to do some jiggery-pokery to get it back.

OK ALex, sincere apologies, your space is back up. I *think*, in this case, the 'profanity' filter is picking up on the word 'drugs'. It's very clumsy, I know, and I'll try and sort out a refinement on this, but in the meantime just mail us if it happens again and we'll always try fix stuff as soon as we possibly can.

His message center is still gone, though, just like happens to TRiG every time.

I've replaced the d in 'drugs' with an tag in each instance, but it only made my space disappear again

Sorry you're having this trouble, Alex. I've been there, too.
Are there any other naughty words on your PS? I'm not sure that you should really be allowed to use them until you've qualified.

It's yikesed my page of edited entries now. I tried re-creating it under a new A-number but it's yikesed it again.
The only dodgy words I have in it are 'Thatcher' and 'bikini'. Fortunately for everyone, they refer to different entries.

A31244618 was my second attempt. I'll see if I can find the first...

Not sure why they were yikesed. They're back up now. If it was one of those 'long entry' problems, the good news is that the DNA tech team have finally identified the problem and a fix will be implemented tomorrow.
