You can mark specific revisions as deleted, and delete entire pages, but a wiki engine is designed to keep old versions available in order to allow them to be restored; whether this is undeleting entire pages, or revisions, or merely rolling back/reverting to an older version of a page, for whatever reason.

Excuse what may be a stupid question, but I was burned using another Wiki software so I have become more cautious: does MediWiki expire old versions of article and talk pages and delete these from the database? Or are all versions kept indefinitely (which is what I want)?
MediaWiki keeps all versions forever.
