I was wondering if [Quote Callouts](https://meta.discourse.org/t/quote-callouts/350962) could work as an off-the-shelf option?

Just as an extra tidbit for the OP edit history - if you make use of the schedule publishing or shared draft features, the post revisions are deleted on publish (which may be useful as hiding lots of edit revisions can be a chore 🙂)

Alternatively, there’s also the hidden `can permanently delete` site setting which (once enabled) will allow you to purge all the post revisions in a button press. You need to hide one first, and then the ‘delete’ button turns up.

There’s a bit more info on how to enable hidden site settings here: [Using Hidden Site Settings](https://meta.discourse.org/t/using-hidden-site-settings/308773)
