Description Mike.lifeguard 2008-09-24 13:50:16 UTC 
Please add a setting so users may always see the diff only unless otherwise specified (which I think can't be done currently -- &diffonly=yes works but &diffonly=no does the same thing). This makes viewing diffs on large pages like [[m:Spam blacklist]] or [[WP:ANI]] easier since one doesn't need (or want, usually) to load the whole page below the diff as well and many users prefer to see only the diff in most other cases as well. The point of the diff is to see what changed, so loading extra stuff is a matter of personal preference.

Comment 4 Mike.lifeguard 2008-09-24 15:50:14 UTC 
Dammit! I can't even complain it is hidden in some obscure location or something :P

But then how does one see /not/ diffonly if &diffonly=no or &diffonly=false don't do anything? What if in some instance you do want to see the page content below the diff?
