Using page history
Hi, I don't know whether you knew that it is possible to see previous versions of Wikipedia articles, and to go back to a selected version. Please see WP:REVERT for information on this.

I mention this because you helpfully improved the page We All Go Back to Where We Belong. In future, if you see a page that is plainly wrong about something that you would expect to have a decent article, it's worth checking the page history. In that case, something had gone badly wrong on the preceding edit, and you could have saved yourself some effort by reverting to a previous version. Hope this helps! – Fayenatic (talk) 12:18, 19 October 2011 (UTC) Thanks for that help, I did know about the history page and through that, reverting. Its just I did not think to do so because I believed this page had just been created like that.
