The [[Help:Special page|Special page]] [[Special:Undelete]] is for wiki administrators to browse the revisions associated with deleted pages (so called deleted revisions).

To view this page you will need the '''deletedhistory''' [[Manual:User rights|permission]]. If you also have the '''browsearchive''' permission, you will additionally be able to search for deleted pages. ''Note, '''browsearchive''' does '''not''' imply '''deletedhistory'''''.

The text of the deleted revisions will only be viewable with the '''deletedtext''' permission.

Finally, you can restore deleted revisions with the '''undelete''' permission. ''Note, '''undelete''' implies '''deletedtext''' (as you wouldn't want to restore text you couldn't see''.

For completeness, it is perhaps worth mentioning that the '''undelete''' permission alone isn't sufficient to restore a deleted page, you additionally need the '''deletedhistory''' permission, which, unlike '''deletedtext''', isn't implied by '''undelete'''. This is [https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21076 probably a bug], however.
