This is a documentation subpage for Template:Diff3. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
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 link for the timestamp, which is of the form:
http[s]://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=SomePageName&oldid=442212827
The number after oldid= is the revision ID.
Unlike {{Diff}}, this template does not require the page name, and provides a diff between a specified revision ID and the one immediately before it (i.e. what changed at a certain ID). Unlike {{Diff2}}, this template does not have a section name parameter.
Usage
{{Diff3|oldid [|label]}}
- oldid – The base ID onto which the diff is generated.
- label – (optional) Text to display as link. No label will give a numbered link.
Examples
Code | Output |

{{Diff3|123456789}}

{{Diff3|123456789|SomeUser's edit to "Some article name"}}

SomeUser's edit to "Some article name" |
