Why are we doing this?
Diffs are often used by editors to contribute to RFC, RFA or other requests that require administrative attention. They are used as evidence to back-up claims of vandalism or abuse. Additionally, they allow users to see how an article has changed over time.
User story
As an editor or reader who uses the iOS app, I would like to be able to see how an article has changed over time. This helps me to understand how individual or cumulative edits have affected the article over time.
Proposed designs
| Top of page | Scrolled page | Scrolled page, unedited line expanded |
|---|---|---|
| https://zpl.io/VYo6WdL | https://zpl.io/25AwWOr | https://zpl.io/bekNRNP |
Design details
- The older of the two revisions is shown on the left on LTR languages
- Unedited lines are only shown if they are the two lines before or after an edit
- Unedited lines can be expanded by tapping on 'show'
- Edits that added bytes are highlighted in green and bolded
- Edits that removed bytes are highlighted in red, bolded and struck through
- The revision information in the header is collapsed on scroll (see second mock)
