3-4 years are a long time, you shouldn’t simply revert everything to the version before s/99he touched it, because we would loose all the edits that happened after that.
For objects that are still last edited by this user, it seems a bit safer to revert, but also then it will potentially create duplicates, because the features s/he deleted may have been recreated from scratch in the meantime.
cheers
