Fix style of Special:MobileDiff on desktop site
Closed, DuplicatePublic

Description

The "Bytes added" and the author information look broken when viewing a mobile difflink on the desktop site, e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/656016868 (checked in Chromium and Firefox under Ubuntu, happy to provide screenshots in case it's not reproducible elsewhere. Same diff on the mobile site.)

This is to some extent cosmetics, as (to my understanding) this special page isn't exposed systematically on desktop. But nevertheless, it exists there, and might occur in some situations such as when automatically rewriting mobile links for desktop. And on the other hand it should be easy to fix. Perhaps a good exercise for someone who wants to get their feet wet with MediaWiki CSS?

Here are two screenshots of the above example (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/656016868 ).

Chromium:

(both under Ubuntu 14.10)

Actually it looks fine for me too now, on both Firefox and Chrome. Will close if there are no other observations.

Florian fixed a similar bug recently. I suspect it was the same.

@Jdlrobson i think so, i remember the task described that problem, too :)
