Community Forum

VisualDiff is integrated in the history page of every article. Users can compare versions directly in the flow text in addition to the standard comparison view.

Usage / features

There are three diff views:

• Visual: The differences are shown in the flow text.
• WikiText: The output is shown in Wikitext in an integrated view.
• Classic: The output is in WikiCode.

Tabs allow to switch between the three views.
