Hi,
I have different groups in my wiki.
Rollback permission allows one-click reversion of edits. What is this about?
What is the usage of this? How can I use this function? I tried to
enable/disable this function, but I could not see any changes!
I think if I change rollback permission to false
-$wgGroupPermissions['Author']['rollback'] = false -
, Authors can not view history. Because of this Authors can not undo changes
- can not view related changes and after that can not edit and save an older
version of the page. (Is it right?) But it is not work in my wiki.

People who have Rollback permission will see a Rollback link on Recent
changes or any page's history tab.
Rollback is only a short-cut for viewing an old revision and then
saving the page as that old revision. Actually since "Undo"
functionality was introduced it is more or less redundant. (Rollback
is 1 click, Undo is 2 clicks. Also, Undo is only on page history.)
If people can view old revisions, they will be able to save them, even
if they just cut and paste. I don't think you can have a wiki and
really stop people being able to "revert" (which is what I think you
want to do?).
