--- Comment #10 from Arnold Reinhold <[email protected]> ---
I reported 63707 as a feature request. I think it had a clearer explanation of
the need. Here is what I wrote:

"In diff displays, it is sometimes hard to find the altered text in the article
or edit page. This is particularly true for small edits to large tables or
complex references. Blocks of text in diffs are always preceded by a line
number. It would be helpful if that line number was a live link that took you
to the place in the text where the changed block occurs, perhaps highlighting
the first few words of the text in the diff block."

I have been editing Wikipedia for ten years and run into this problem all the
time. I'm sure other editors do as well and that there are errors that have
crept into the encyclopedia because it is too hard to find what has changed. I
would also note that three other bugs have been redirected here, but this bug
only has two votes. That seems wrong. --agr
