[edit] What can this extension do?
This extension allows sysops (by default) to edit the edit summary of any revision, or any user to edit their own edit summary. The extension adds a special page (Special:EditSummary) which allows users to edit edit summaries. It also adds a log page, to keep track of users who are editing summaries ("editsum").
[edit] Usage
Visit Special:EditSummary, and fill out the oldid of the revision. If necessary, fill out the new summary and/or a reason. Click submit.
[edit] Download instructions
