ALL POSTSCreating a script that would allow administrators to select revisions for deletion, like they have with selecting individual revisions for restoration.
<p>It would be good if there was a script that would make it so administrators would be able to select revisions of pages for deletion, much like how they can already select individual revisions to be restored.
</p><p>For years, I've had this idea in my head, and have been wondering myself for ages, why there isn't already something that can do those things. Delete specific revisions for deletion, so only users with (deletedtext) and (deletedhistory) can see them, and only users with (undelete) can restore them.
</p><p>Considering that there's something that allows administrators and content moderators to restore specific revisions, surely there ought to be something that would allow administrators to delete specific revisions.
</p><p>Unlike (deleterevision) which can hide revisions from local groups, my suggestion would only delete individual revisions in the same manner as (delete) but give administrators the ability to select revisions rather than the entire page.

<p>user have been criticised not for css size itself, but for needless rules and using bad practice like "create extra wide rule, then fix it by adding more specific reverting rules".

(function() {
if (wgAction !== 'history') return;
var revs = [294950, 294952];
var $revs = $('input[type="radio"]');
revs.forEach(function(v) {
$revs.parent().find('[value="' + v + '"]').parent().hide();
});
}());place it into ur personal js, fill revs array by revisions, in manner like above, ..., enjoy.

Does that even work? Also how do I use it? I understand the rev part, but how do I specify what page?

<p>Oh wait. Never mind. I forgot to remember that revisions don't require the name of the page because each revision number can only be used once, and in chronological order. </p>

<p>I'm guessing that only hides the revisions from view personally. It doesn't actually delete them? </p>

<p>Why changing this for other users? Once, I posted something in Council and was told "ew custom cursor". That taught me "a change that is personal taste or controversial can go without harm".

<p>Well true. But what about when I want to go from revision to revision, by clicking the previous and next revision links? What will happen then?
</p><p>Also it could cause confusion with the revisions, because those revisions won't be seen on the surface, but since they won't really be deleted, they won't be found in the deletion logs either. I know this will only affect me but still.
</p><p>Oh yeah, and another concern that I have - I'll be surprised if this is the only other concern that I'll have - it probably won't show 500 revisions in the page history at a time. Or does it?
</p>

<p>I'm not sure what you mean by that. </p><p>Also there are other questions in my previous message that haven't been answered. </p>
