==How to revert a page==
+
Also, he will find this example of immaturity amusing no end for all the wrong reasons because he's not a very smart person.
-
Any page can be reverted back to a previous version.  Here's how:
+
-
*''sysop:'' Simply click "history" at the top of the page you wish to roll back. Position the radio buttons at the current version and the version you want to roll back to, then click "Compare selected versions". Next, click the "rollback" link near the upper right side of the page (directly to the right of the most recent author's name).
+
-
*''non-sysop:'' Simply click "history" at the top of the page you wish to roll back.  Then click on the time and date of the archived version you want to revert back to.  The page will appear with the version indicated at the top of the page, just underneath the page title.  Next, click "edit" at the top of the page.  Add a note in the Summary box that you are reverting the page because of a troll, and then click "Save page".

After repeated defacings, an offender's IP address can be blocked by [[Special:Listadmins|several users]] who have admin rights. These admins pay careful attention to this page, and will [[Special:Ipblocklist|block]] IP addresses where/when appropriate.

If you see any suspicious, defamatory, or objectionable behavior by any individuals on our wiki, please add their IP address to the list following the same format as the example shown below.  For our purposes, an "offense" is defined as the defacement of a single document of our wiki.

'''The general format:'''<br>Use the <nowiki>{{troll}}</nowiki> template as shown below to input the user name, which will automatically create the appropriate links. Spaces in user names must be entered as underscores.

<!--- Now, this table format might be a bit confusing, so if you can't figure out how to add people to it, just toss the date, IP address, and pages defaced down at the bottom of the page and someone will add it in for you.  We're flexible like that. --->
