There is a script which handles this (and restores the page's original
protection levels in case your forget). One copy is at

It would be useful if
these could be made possible:-
* When deleting some edits in a page, to directly select them and
delete them, instead of having to delete everything and then undelete
the rest.
We have rev_deleted feature implemented, but it is not reviewed yet.
While waiting for rev_deleted, even an UI for the current deletion
system that allowed for selective deletion of revisions (rather than
only wholesale deletion followed by selective undeletion) would be useful.
Something like that has been on my personal "to do" list for quite some
time; who knows, maybe I'll even find the time to implement it before
rev_deleted goes live. (That one's only been implemented and "waiting
for more testing" for, what, two years now?)
