It's never gone. Wikipedia always keeps a history of every page. Just look for the "history" tab at the top.
The list is here. (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Street_unicycling&oldid=278643795)
Someone must have edited it
Unfortunately "someone" didn't log into Wikipedia before they yanked out the content. Their IP address traces back to Melbourne, Australia... that's all we can tell.
It seems they yanked out quite a bit of content in a series of edits. Perhaps someone should go in there and put it back? It is, after all, a community document.

Hey does anyone know who made 'The Unicyclopedia'? It's the wikibook.
Thanks guys, that's really helpful!
I believe those are all known for the moment street tricks, except grinds and typical flat ones, like wraps and rolls...
is there a similar list of flat tricks?
I'm working now on a translation tricklist to polish, basing on old wikipedia wersion and Any Terrain's list and I found some inaccuracy... I can nowhere find what exactly is smallspin...

A smallspin is a 180 hoptwist and 180 unispin
Bigspin is 180 hoptwist and 360 unispin
Hugespin is 180 hoptwist and 540 unispin
Mammoth Spin is 180 hoptwist and 720 unispin (aka a large spin)
