Use Special:Contact/general to ask staff. Only they will be able to provide an answer. If you know the domain, you (or I, if you tell me what the domain was) could check to see if a database dump is available.
Alright, the link is "tough-carrot.wikia.com," and the wiki is titled the "Supreme Facts Community."
It's probably due to the fact that it was violating the Terms of Use.
How, exactly, did it violate the Terms of Use? With all due respect, just saying it violated the terms doesn't help identify what rule the wiki violated. I'm just going to take a wild guess and assume it was taken down because it “encouraged criminal conduct”, which would be absolutely false and nothing more than a completely subjective opinion.
However, I did “post and transmit content that was [...] profane” simply for educational purposes. Despite my efforts at removing said content worried FANDOM would do some bullshit, I guess that warrants the deletion of an entire wiki. Fuck ass FANDOM niggas...
I understand that you're angry that your wiki got shut down, but please refrain from swearing and keep it to yourself.

And, I'd recommend doing the above.
As we already said, only staff would know the actual reason. You need to ask them; we can only guess. However, I was able to access the data base dumps for your wiki.
"current" pages & history/previous page versions
If nothing else, you can at least keep those as a record of the wiki. In theory, you could use them (only one is needed) to import all the pages to some other MediaWiki host like ShoutWiki. However, it probably won't be entirely compatible as FANDOM uses a customized version of MediaWiki. Also, you wouldn't have any of the files that were associated with the wiki.
Right now, your best option is to ask staff. Depending on what the reason was, they might be willing to restore the wiki.
