Yesterday in DevChat, @ocean90 requested we write a help tab for the new revisions screen. I’ve uploaded a first-run patch and am looking for feedback and revisions (ha) on that text.
I’d just like to note that I think we can be succinct about this without leaving out important information.
The ticket and patch are on the #23899 ticket.
The following is the first-run text:
Tab: Overview:
This screen is used for managing your content revisions.
Revisions are saved copies of your post or page, which are periodically created as you update your content. Text highlighted in red shows what content was removed, highlighted in green shows what content was added.
From this screen you can review, compare, and restore revisions:
- To navigate between revisions, drag the slider arrow left or right or use the Previous or Next buttons.
- Compare two different revisions by selecting the ‘Compare two revisions’ box to the side.
- To restore a revision, click the Restore This Revision button.
Tab Sidebar:

Side note: The Revisions Management page is slated for pre-sprint release, in other words, it’ll be done in time for the 3.6 release so forum folks have something to reference.
