Thanks for bringing that to my attention.  But the verb form describes a
specific situation in computing (restoring a database to a previously defined
state).

In the relevant context (reverting to an earlier revision of a wiki page, with
subsequent edits retained in the database and history), "rollback" means "act
or instance of rolling back".

Is the addition of a colon ("rollback: 2 edits") technically feasible?
