RevisionDelete entries on Special:Watchlist should link to Special:Diff and Special:RevisionDelete
Open, LowPublic

Description

Entries on Special:Watchlist for revision deletion events currently look (to those with sufficient viewing privileges) like this:

12:00 (Deletion log) Admin (talk | contribs | block) changed visibility of a revision on page Example: content hidden ‎(Reason)

The equivalent entry on Special:Log/Delete for "Example" is:

12:00, 10 May 2016 Admin (talk | contribs | block) changed visibility of a revision on page Example: content hidden ‎(Reason) (diff | more...)

"diff" is a link to Special:Diff, "more..." is a link to Special:RevisionDelete.

What about Special:RecentChanges? Special:Watchlist should be more like that than Special:Log IIRC

See also T49402 (Better diff for revision deletions: Show indicator of what visibility restrictions were set or unset).

I never use it, to be honest. How do RevDel events appear in it?
