I don't really understand what you're asking for. Edits pre-reversion are in the page's history and can be copied over.

except it's not clear at all what point the edits got rollbacked from.

btw, I've streamlined the list to only list the pages massive amounts of edits that were rolledback. I feel like this should be reasonable enough of a request.

Hmm...You're asking mods to undo their reversion. I think it's more important to convince them why the previous reversion is a mistake (which is rare).

Since it was your edits they seem to have reverted, what changes are you objecting to?

I'm guessing (a mod can confirm) that the revert date was February 1st, just before the edit that red link index stuff was added. So every entry that was added to these pages from that edit up to the revert should be re-added, which can be done manually.

It was this ATT that caused those mod reverts (just sharing for others' info).

Did some digging and it appears that each page was reverted up to the re-added Characters/ red links, so it's the edits after those that (also) got reverted. If it helps, here's the link to the edit for each page in your given list right after that point:

I can't say whether mods should fix it or the changes should be salvaged manually though. If the former happens, please mind the edits after the (first) mod-revert too.

EDIT: Got ninja'd by the post above me but yeah.

Normally, mod edits and reversions are done purposefully and with plenty of thought behind them. I wouldn't undo them without their permission, which so far doesn't seem to be forthcoming.
