==Undoing changes== | |||
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: | |||
* 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. | |||
