A rather silly thing

Hi :)
There used to be a special page called "Recent changes" or "Recent History" or something that was not just 1 page but covered all the pages of the wiki.  It made it quite easy to spot where spam editors might have done multiple pages at the same time and then vanished.  

I'm not sure if this particular problem would show up in there but it might.  

Does anyone know how to reach that sort of thing now?
Regards from
Tom :)

>I've spent several days working on a wiki page that was safely stored at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw/Activities I then foolishly tried to do a rename to the full title of https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Activities in the rename box instead of doing a copy / paste. The target page had been deleted. That page [fortunately I did take a JIC copy] which I have re-instated.. It was late and I was tired. Does anyone have any idea as to where it would have gone? I re-created a page on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/phillw/Activities but it shows as brand new, with no history... so It got renamed..... but to where?
