[edit] How to revert someone's changes
Hi, nice to have you on board! You mentioned you didn't know how to revert someone's changes. It's easy: click the history tab to see the list of recent revisions; click on the revision you want to revert to, and you'll see the old page. Then click the edit tab and the edit window will come up, with a big warning message telling you that you're editing an old version, and any changes made since will be discarded. It's normal to not make extra edits at the same time as doing a revert, although you can if you want to — it just makes it more difficult to summarise the change.
One thing I like to emphasise to people is that if you're reverting some undesired change such as vandalism, take a few moments to check that you're reverting back far enough to correct all the changes. Sometimes people don't revert back far enough and no-one notices for some time. Have fun! Fuzzypeg☻ 03:53, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
