Comments and history
Comments on words or the page, mentions, replies and resolving, one editor at a time, the page history and restoring, following pages, and the trash.
Comments
- On some words: select them and press Comment in the small bar. The words are marked in yellow; click them to see the comments.
- On the page: press the speech bubble at the top right and write in the box.
Write @Name to mention someone; they are told. Reply in the thread, and press Resolve when it's done (Open again brings it back). Resolved in the comments panel shows the resolved threads.
Viewers can comment too. You can change or remove your own comments; Editors can remove any.
People who follow a page, and the people in a thread, are told about new comments.
One editor at a time
While someone is editing a page, others see "Name is editing this page" and can read it; their changes show when they finish. This way nobody's words are lost. If someone left a page open, Edit anyway takes over - the other person is told to copy any unsaved words.
History
More > History lists the versions of the page: who saved it and when. Click a version to look at it; Restore this version makes it the newest version. Nothing is lost - the words of now stay in the history.
A new version is kept when someone else saves, or after 10 minutes of editing. The Free plan keeps 7 days of versions (and always the newest five); paid plans keep every version, unless Settings > Preferences > Keep versions for says fewer days.
Following
More > Follow - you are told about comments, and get a daily email of pages you follow that others changed. You follow pages you make, change or comment on by yourself (Settings can turn this off).
The trash
More > Move to the trash puts a page - and the pages inside it - in the trash. Trash in the menu shows what you removed (Editors see everything except other people's Private pages): Restore brings the whole branch back; Remove for good deletes it with its history, comments and files.
Pages go for good after 30 days in the trash (Settings > Preferences can change this).
