I just noticed there isn't any history on the wiki pages. That surprised me. I'm used to edit history on wiki pages, wikipedia being one example. Is there really no history on the giant bomb pages? Am I overlooking it?
@Unknown_Pleasures: It can be hugely useful, in case someone with automatic approval access defaces a page. Having the history allows you to flip back to the pre-defacement version with one click. I have to wonder if it is being stored, but not exposed, or if it really isn't stored anywhere.
They had one a while ago but it completely broke the site in almost every possible way, so they removed it. I agree that it would be useful to have, let's just hope that it doesn't destroy the site should they decide to bring it back.
@Unknown_Pleasures: They understand the importance of the wiki feature, but they're a small staff and have to prioritize. There are definitely plans to do a lot of work on the wiki feature at some point in the future. When that will happen, I don't know, but it will happen.
