As a data point, I had to restore the How_To_Contribute page the other day after the following happened: 1. Spammer moved How_To_Contribute to a 555-5p4m-number-woo page 2. Spammer replaced the content with spam 3. SmitSpam deleted the page as spam 4. How_To_Contribute was no more and someone came into channel to report it missing With the history intact I was able to revert everything by working from the missing How_To_Contribute page to get us back to the last working copy. So it's not just about the history of old pages we intentionally deleted. -- Elizabeth Krumbach Joseph || Lyz || pleia2 _______________________________________________ OpenStack-Infra mailing list OpenStack-Infra@lists.openstack.org http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-infra
