| 40px | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Diff. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| 40px | This template is used on approximately 27,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.
Transclusion count updated automatically (see documentation). |
This template is intended to be useful for creating links to "diffs"; that is, links to pages that show the differences between two versions of a wiki page.
Every version of a page has a revision ID, which you can find from the history of the page by looking at the timestamp link for the edit. The timestamp link is in this form:
http[s]://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=SomePageName&oldid=442212827
The number after oldid= is the revision ID.
Given one or two revision IDs, you can construct links to several types of diffs.
Usage
{{Diff|title|diff|oldid|label|diffonly=yes}}
titleTemplate:SndsThe title of the page (optional in most cases).diffTemplate:SndsThe ID or keyword that is used against the base ID. Possible keywords are:curTemplate:Sndscompare with the current version of a page.prevTemplate:Sndscompare with the previous version of a page.nextTemplate:Sndscompare with the next version of a page.- idTemplate:SndsThis should be larger than
oldid.
oldidTemplate:SndsThe base ID onto which the diff is generated.labelTemplate:SndsText to display as link (optional)Template:Nsmdnsno label will generate a numbered link as the label.|diffonly=yesTemplate:SndsDisplays the page comparisons only (optional)Template:Nsmdnsparameter name required if used.
Only the diff parameter is required; all other parameters are optional. Omitted parameters must be empty (by using a double pipe). You can also use the named parameters title, diff, oldid, and label.
