I doubt it is possible to change the old versions without developer access or shell login.
Maybe there are several old edits by the same offender which were reverted, and you just clicked on the vandalized version?
The problem appears to have been that some of Stevertigo's edits were marked as reversions, spelling corrections, or other such 'minor' edits but in fact contained additional, very controversial, changes.
Someone else not looking closely might then use one of them as a base for reversion or additional editing and retain the problematic text in later edits unintentionally.
