All I can say is "it wasn't me". It's possible another wiki admin did it, but honestly I don't think most (if any) other than me are very active. The full list of people who could have.
If they did, they surely did so on purpose (you can't accidentally remove entries in one click), so it seems either A) there was just some confusion, B) an admin intentionally (and therefore likely correctly) removed some entries ... or very unlikely option C) an admin removed entries incorrectly.
I don't think there's any kind of log of deletions (that would have made even more work for Ravhin, and "bad" wiki admins could do much worse things that remove price entries, so he probably figured it wasn't needed), but if anyone does ever notice a suspicious pattern of removals, I'd ask that they PM me privately so we can try work out a way to test the theory.

Is there a way to at least log if someone accessed that page in an editing capacity or is that just as much work as having a log of specific deletions? Seems like if there's no ability to oversee changes people are making, then the edit ability should be removed.
Seems unfair to allow people to affect the market by arbitrarily removing entries that are clearly (or arguably) not egregious price inflation attempts. For example, I would think things should only be removed if you look at the log and see an individual seller clearly spamming egregious prices to try and block out other entries in the log. In that case that person is clearly trying to manipulate things so that the log doesn't show any data to the contrary.
Removing entries because some different sellers want to sell something for a couple hundred pp more and one person thinks that's too high a price should not be happening because it's just as much market manipulation as someone trying to artificially inflate prices on the log.
