How to revert to older version on wiki?
The Worldperks Program Basics wiki has seen repeated vandalism in recent days. A user logging in as "Flyertalk" has been trying to revert things when they get screwed up, but currently the whole page is blank. Is there a way to revert it to the 18 Dec 2006 Flyertalk version without cutting and pasting everything in manually? I don't see a revert button, so maybe that's only available to admins?

I'll have Mikel take a look at this, he normally handles the moderation of the wiki, but I'm pretty sure he is snowed in today.

Admittedly, this isn't very intuitive. The reversion process for the admins is easier -- I'll look into ways of making the process simpler for all users.
Thanks for bringing this up, it's a very good question.
