I have used this new feature to restore several articles and files and their associated talk pages on beta.
This has included restoring talk page which were suppressed (an option users in the Oversighters group can choose when they delete a page).

I did some basic tests restoring files and user pages + their respective talk pages.
I checked that I could not restore a talk page if I was blocked from it.
