I'm new to editing the articles on that site but I took the time to "clean up" the articles about the Elder Dragons do to the complete mess some of the pages where in. Many of the pages had mix up facts or just information that was completely made up like the article about the "Ascalon Dragon" (???).

So after I finished I came back to find that a " Unregistered contributor" took down everything I wrote even when I stated the info came from the official Guild Wars 2 wiki and put all the mix up and made up crap back up.

So is there anyway to send a message to this person asking why he did it?

Leave a message on their talk page.

Next time, please use the right subforum - Q&A.

This site isn't affiliated with the wiki either, so you're probably better checking with them.

Perhaps that is your clue right there. GW2 stuff belongs on the GW2 wiki, not on the GW1 wiki. The GW1 wiki is meant to be from the perspective of GW1, not updated with information that the characters do not yet know.

It is a good idea to post on the talk page and raise your issue with the page, often times things that you may think are wrong or don't belong have a rational behind them.

Also remember that the site is 5 years old, so there is bound to be some outdated information on it, when confronted with that look at the page history and the talk page, as there might be a reason why, the article still mentions some old but outdated note.
