OK I think I'll have to be more precise. I want every user to be contactable 
from looking at there edits. This definitely grew the first time I had to 
spend a whole day to remove stuff a beginner added, because he probably 
didn't knew that he is doing double work and so generating even more work.
If I'd be able to contact him or her I would have been able to contact him or 
her and tell, what to do to correct it. But this way he/she thinks "I did 
good work" and does the same thing again.

And YES, rollback would be great too.
