Description Melancholie 2009-02-12 01:06:19 UTC 
Only one word is shown red on diff comparison when turning around two words on edit.

See
http://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Book_tool&curid=163960&diff=1387533&oldid=1387462

The first word ("many") is marked red, but also the word "are" is involved in this turnaround!
So the whole change (both words) should be marked red.
Comment 1 Brad Jorsch 2009-02-13 03:52:27 UTC 
The software is interpreting the edit as the word "many" being deleted in one place and a different word "many" being inserted in another place. It could equally well have interpreted it as the same with the word "are".
Comment 2 Siebrand Mazeland 2009-02-15 00:33:45 UTC 
Closed as worksforme per comment 1.
Comment 3 Melancholie 2009-02-15 02:57:32 UTC 
Doesn't work for me (I still would love the see the 'whole change' being marked for simple word turnarounds), but either close this with INVALID or WONTFIX (the one that suits best, if).
Comment 4 Melancholie 2009-02-15 02:58:05 UTC 
per comment #3
Comment 5 Siebrand Mazeland 2009-02-15 10:43:18 UTC 
Sorry, but comment 1 just explains how it works. Please close this issue.
Comment 6 Melancholie 2009-02-15 22:11:05 UTC 
Sounds like WONTFIX :-(
