Note
One regular form does double duty. On its own it is the simple past (she wiped the screen), and after have or be it builds the perfect and the passive (the files were wiped). It often travels with a particle: wiped away, wiped off, wiped out. The erasing sense sits naturally in the passive. An obsolete meaning, to cheat, also took out, so wiped out in older writing may mean swindled rather than erased.
