Description

Why are we doing this?

During usability testing we found that most users did not realize that text was being replaced as they replaced it until there was a significant move in the text.

Proposed solution

Maintain a highlight on changed text, but use a different color

@cmadeo do we want to mark text only for single replace or for both?

It’d be great to mark both single and replace all instances! Thanks @NHarateh_WMF
