[Wikitech-l] Rollback feature

2009-05-07 Thread Strainu
Hi,

Is the rollback feature available to sysops MEANT to remove all the
consecutive contributions of a certain user? Shouldn't it erase just the
latest change?

Here is an example:
http://ro.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Facultatea_de_Mecanic%C4%83_a_Universit%C4%83%C5%A3ii_%E2%80%9EPolitehnica%E2%80%9D_din_Timi%C5%9Foaraaction=history(the
changes marked with Revenire
la ultima modificare... are made using this feature). You can see that it
reverted 2 or 3 versions back.

Thanks,
 Strainu

What you described is the difference between rollback and undo.  This is why
it is more powerful and therefore only available to users with the
permission (normally sysop and above).

Yeah, that is the behavior which should be there.
