 ====Relax, you can't screw up====
 Having asked you to be mindful of the pages you edit, take comfort in knowing that you literally can't damage a page so badly that it cannot be restored.
-One of the best things about this wiki platform is that each page has a "History" of older versions, including the one you just saved over. You (or another person) can always undo an edit and restore an older version of a page.
-When viewing a page's history tab:
+See [[#Undoing changes]]
-* Selecting '''Undo''' on the current version will show you the difference between it and the next most recent version, and you can then select "Save page" to restore the earlier of the two versions.
-* Selecting '''Rollback''' on the current version of a page will undo all of the recent changes by the contributor who had saved that current version, with the effect of rewinding the page back to the most recent version saved by someone other than that contributor.
 ====If we haven't taught you how to do it, ask us how (or leave it be)====
