You can't. Sorry.
What you can do is get a restorer, if you still have some of the wallpaper left, they can replace the piece - and make it look like nothing ever happened.
Could be worse, I once had to replace a row of six floorboards - and make it look like they had always been there.

you cant remove paint from wallpaper, it just causes the paste to dissintigrate,and the paper will be ruined as it will fall off, your only option is to repaint it in a lighter colour, or to wallpaper again, ive been decorating for years

Try acetone (like Tips Off or some other acetone based fingernail polish remover) and a Q-tip. That way, if it doesn't go well, its a small area. If it does, then you've practiced for the rest of the spots.
BTW... acetone is used as a paint thinner. Crazy to think we use that on our nails, isn't it.

repeating scripture and not knowing scripture is dangerous, cause ppl use it out of context. when paul wrote that, it had nothing to do with going to a doctor, or any of that. paul was talking bout LAZY christains. faith without works is dead. he was telling them that we all are called to do some type of job for the kingdom of God, and how can a person say that they have great faith and there are no works to show ur faith. God didnt call us to go to church for ten yrs and just sit on the pew and never do nothing for the kingdom. paul and none of the other apostles was lazy. what if paul would have been lazy, the new testament would be very short. your faith should make ppl want to work for the kingdom. the more u believe in jesus the more u want to work to get his name out there to a dying world. paul was actually saying in a nutshell, the more the faith the greater the work and sacrifice and lesser the faith, the lesser the work and the sacrifice.

If you mean it's just a spot try brush cleaner (meths) otherwise don't even think about it as you won't be able to. Why not paint over it with a colour you like? Otherwise you will have to strip it. I would come round and help but my diary is full just now!

paint over paper? and now you want to remove the paint? forget it. The paper got ruined when you painted over it. Take it down and start all over again.

what if you took a piece of sand paper, cut a tiny piece of about the size of a pencil eraser, and then glued it an actual pencil eraser. Then carefully sand away at the paint using the pencil/sandpaper.
I've never tried this, just a guess.
