It's relatively easy to restore wiki pages here after spam or vandalism. There is an RCS archive containing the necessary page revisions.

The necessary steps:

  • please set your username in "Preferences" to make the "Archive"-link at the bottom of the page visible.
  • select "Archive", choose the revision you want to revert to, then choose the link "Text".
  • copy all the text from the textarea, go back to the page edit form and replace the current page content and "Save".
If spam and vandalism increase further, I'll add a revert function somewhere to make this simpler. Thank you to all that help to keep the wiki as open as possible. -- HelmutLeitner
