Alexandria Incidents are massive losses of data that intentionally or unintentionally take down part or the whole of a service's data at once.
Geocities died intentionally, and the loss was the death of the whole service, and thus is considered an A type Alexandria Incident.
The Myspace Data Loss Incident was unintentional, and was the loss of only a portion of the service, and thus is considered a B type Alexandria Incident.
The Tumblr porn ban was intentional, and was a loss of only a portion of the service, and is thus a C type
The Theoretical D type, where the data loss was unintentional and resulted in service wide data loss happens usually to small scale services, or large services in their early days, I do not know of many good examples of this if any
The name, Alexandria Incident, comes from the burning of the library of Alexandria.

Get the Alexandria Incidentmug. A type of woman that belongs to a man only to show that she can cook. Constantly paired with men named seth, she only has 3 uses. 1: cook, 2: give head, 3: bleed. Usually when “Ali” does not do these tasks she gets black eyes. (This also happens when she is being a nagger)
Ali: “Hey baby? Can you get off xbox and give me some attention?”
Seth: *punches alexandria hudson in the eye* “stop being a nagger”

Get the The burning of the Library of Alexandriamug. Alexandria N is the most caring person you will ever meet. She is kind, caring and sweet. She is always willing to stick up for her friends, even if she will get in trouble. She is one of the most beautiful people, but she will always deny it. She is kind to everyone, and is only mean if she is being protective of her friends. If you ever meet an Alexandria N, you are lucky to have her.
