    Description

      It would be great to have a way of unapproving database and glossary entries which have been approved by accident i.e. setting to require approval again. Currently it can only be done through phpmyadmin http://docs.moodle.org/20/en/Database_activity_module_FAQ#How_can_I_hide_a_database_entry_which_was_previously_approved.3F
