I have reverts the changes sets I claimed where I can - most are too big for a basic Potlatch approach but I have done the others (although Potlatch has bugs in reversion that we have already noted) I have got though about half of the rest of Liam123's changesets to see how big they are and also where they are for. Firstly, it is clear that Liam123 had brief 'holidays' in Benidorm and in Germany. Secondly, he has done other large edits including hundreds of edits that can't be reverted easily with Potlatch. So... This is not just a UK issue, and also we need some better reversion tools. Any offers?
