What did Wikipedia remove from the West Ham Jewish Cemetery article?

The opening as it read in 2010

West Ham is a Jewish Cemetery in West Ham , England.¹ The cemetery was established in 1856 by the New Synagogue on Great St. Helen's soon joined by the Great Synagogue in Duke's Place, both London congregations. There are a number of notable people buried here, in a graveyard visually dominated by the imposing Rothschild Mausoleum . One section contains graves removed to this burial place from the former Hoxton burial ground of the Hambro Synagogue when that site underwent urban redevelopment. The oldest legible tombstone in this section dates from 1794. In 2005 a number of monuments were destroyed and graves violated in what the police described as "a despicable racist attack" by anti-Semitic vandals. The doors of the mausoleum were pounded with heavy iron bars until they were bashed in, then they were torn from the building.²
