If you are talking about Publishing Pages that are based on a page layout, like Deepak said, you can call the SPFile.RevertContentStream() method, or in SharePoint Designer you can right click on the page in the site tree view, and select an option to revert to the original. <br /> <br /> SPFile.RevertContentStream():<br /> http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spfile.revertcontentstream.aspx

We were also facing the same problem and we removed this tag from out page layouts to uncustmoize the layouts. We noted that these tags exists when we are having Webpart Zone into the page layouts. did you also noticed that as well?<br /> <br /> If by mistake any user opened any layouts into the SPD then following method can be used for reverting them back to file system.<br /> <br /> To revert the pages back to file system you can use "revertToContentStream()" method of page layouts. if above mention tag is avaiable in the page layouts then even after running the above method on all page layouts , these layouts will be considered as customized. So these tags needs to be removed from page directive before moving them into the feature files. I am just adding this for readers.<br /> <br /> Regards<br /> Deepak

To revert the pages back to file system you can use "revertToContentStream()" method of page layouts. if above mention tag is avaiable in the page layouts then even after running the above method on all page layouts , these layouts will be considered as customized. So these tags needs to be removed from page directive before moving them into the feature files. I am just adding this for readers.

It's worth noting that you don't need to *modify* a page layout with SPD in order for it to become customised. Just opening the file in SPD is enough to customize it.<br /> <br /> I found this out recently, after a long and painful process very similar to yours, and I haven't seen this info published anywhere else.<br /> <br /> Anthony
