While I think it is important for de:wiki to encourage more flagging of
revisions, I see a fundamental problem with this: When we encourage editors to
only look at difference to last revision, they will overlook intermediate bad
edits. Two common scenarios:
Scenario 1:
Version 1 - sighted
Version 2 - some good edits
Version 3 - reversion or partial deletion of change 2
Result: Version 2 will get overlooked.
Scenario 2:
Version 1 - sighted
Version 2 - sneaky (or at least not blatantly obvious) vandalism
Version 3 - some good edits
Result: The change #2 will appear as part of an overall improvement and is more
likely to get cemented than without the feature.
Instead, I believe it would be much more helpful if we got a fix for #7062,
which would make our work much easier already.
