3.3. This will bring you to a screen comparing the edit and the previous version. The Wiki software will attempt to create an edit page with a version of the article in which the undesirable edit has been removed, but all later edits are retained.

In some cases (for example, if a vandal added or removed text, and unrelated constructive edits have been made since), the easiest way to undo past edits may simply be to edit the current page, deleting wrongly added text or restoring wrongly deleted text (this can be copied and pasted from a past version of the page).
