I have a lot of users who keep asking me to restore a page they have messed up. I have been doing it by going to the history, going to edit, copy, paste etc. Is there a 'restore this (earlier) version mechanism? Am I missing something obvious?:-)

If you're a sysop, go to the history, select the current version and the one you're reverting to, hit "compare selected revisions" and hit "rollback".
