The number of files in the new-files has dropped dramatically since the last time I looked, but no files have been added to the archive. What happened?
If it’s a single file that’s missing, chances are it was deleted for various reasons. However, if it is a considerable chunk of files missing, the reason is probably this: The files are in the process of being approved and transfered for an update. Processing a large amount of files takes quite a bit of time. The files should reappear when the update is complete and they are officially added to the archive (Usually within a few days). Due to a change in the way the updates are handled, this should no longer happen, though, so more than likely a large chunk of missing files indicates that half the site was destroyed by an asteroid impact, taking much of the new-files with it.
