diff


Displays the link for a diff. This is an enhanced version of Special:diff

The first two numbered parameters are the ID numbers of the revisions (in either order). If only the first parameter is given, the diff is to the previous revision. If only the second is given, the diff is to the current revision. If neither is given, the diff is to the current revision of the main page. Thus:

Moreover, there's an optional named Boolean parameter, only, or you can use diffonly, which, if nonzero, makes the diff URL have diffonly set.

  • {{diff|4055082|3025433|only=1}} yields diff
  • {{diff|4055082|3025433|diffonly=1}} yields diff
  • {{diff|3025433|4055082|only=}} yields diff

The third, or text, parameter, yields the text to be displayed:

dir (direction) changes default 'current revision' to:

  • {{diff||dir=next|52361660}} yields diff
  • {{diff||dir=prev|52361660}} yields diff
