Admin Forum:Revision deletion

Has Wikia ever considered giving administrators the power of revdelete? There are instances of grossly degrading, offensive or otherwise obscene edits that we don't want people to see, especially on a wiki like iCarly or Phineas and Ferb that young children frequent. My administrators would use it wisely.  Eric the Grape talk 13:52, August 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * Admins on large wikis are sometimes given right such as this, for example, some of the Call of Duty wiki admins have Checkuser. It's only on an as-needed basis, however, and only through Special:Contact.
 * As a work around, you can delete the page, and then restore everything but the bad revision(s) --  Random Time  14:03, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Would there be a lot of abuse if admins had revdel?  Eric the Grape talk 14:10, August 20, 2011 (UTC)
 * Yep. That's also why most admins don't have checkuser. If you need something revisiondeleted, you can Special:Contact about it, and staff will take care of it.
