User blog:IvyMeme/Tutorial - How to reverse edits easily

Because people seem to not know this.

If you are editing a page and you make a massive messup, or your page gets vandalised.

Don't just spend loads of time retyping the whole thing, taking out every single change. I did that on Ivy's page on the big raid in August 2011 and it took so long.

There is a much easier way:

If you look at where the edit button is, you will notice an arrow pointing down.
Let's just pretend there is a massive vandalism or messup on this page :'D

Now I can view the last time I edited the page before it got vandalised/messed up. :D
=== Ok so this is where we actually reverse the edit. Click on edit like you normally would when editing a page. Now this bit is VERY complicated, read the instructions very carefully so you don't mess it up. In order to reverse you're edit...you need to click publish without editing at all. I know that is way complicated and advanced but trust me it works. ===

Now all edits made after the time we made the edit we viewed have been erased, so it's back to how it used to be. 8D


That's it, the simple way to remove any unwanted edits/vandalism without retyping the whole thing. Hope it helps, my little rainbows~ 8D
