Wikia has a functionality that allows articles to be import from one wiki to another. When that happens, I believe all the revisions of the article are imported. It's been done to this wiki before. Loads of active users at the time suddenly found themselves with tens of thousands of edits in wikis they didn't know existed. I think it was a literal copy of most of the wiki at the time, so we managed to complain about it and have that wiki deleted.
