[support] Is there a standard way to do this with CCK/views (etc) - a tutorial would be fantastic...

You would for sure want to use Revisions (part of core, just need to
set up on each content type. Check out each content type's edit page).
There's a Diff module which will show the differences in each node,
and there is a permission for reverting revisions, too. You could also
look at using revision_moderation if you are wanting to approve each
revision.
