https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47954 --- Comment #4 from Nemo --- On-wiki notifications have an advantage over email: the link to the diff could simply be the timestamp, as on most blogging platform and social networks, without cluttering the interface more. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

If there were multiple messages in different sections OBOD had no way of choosing a sensible section link - it had to be a diff to show all of them. Diffs are useful when a user has posted in the middle of the page or the middle of a long thread. These can be a nightmare to find and may be missed altogether on a busy talk page where many messages are coming in at once. Don't see why we can't have both diff and section links as messages are now notified individually. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

And yes, as said on bug 46937 section link wold be "ideal", but in the real world diff is best option to start with. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47954 --- Comment #8 from Luke Welling --- User feedback around this topic seems very mixed. A significant number of people claim they want an OBOD because they believe it is friendlier to newbies. Maybe friendlier is the wrong word. Perhaps because it is clearer to newbies and hard for them to ignore. Requests for diff links have to balanced against that. Displaying a diff with bits of unparsed wiki markup in it is very opaque and unfriendly to newbies. The two requests are incompatible. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47954 --- Comment #9 from Nemo --- (In reply to comment #8) > The two requests are incompatible. Which two requests, section and diff links? By default diffonly is false, so the diff loads the whole page, which for newbies is short and most likely contains the message, as well as the edit summary with direct link to section (if available). Besides, diff is a very basic feature and not even the n00best of the newbies can do without history and diffs. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47954 --- Comment #10 from Luke Welling --- I was referring to the request to cater to new users receiving their first talk page message, and the request to give more advanced users single click access to a diff to see what happened. New users can do without history and diffs for the first few communications on their talk pages. They will generally be a new section either welcoming them, or telling them off. For those users, a link to that new section is the least confusing, and best formatted interface. For users participating in more complex discussions, they are going to need to view histories and diffs to figure things out, but being sent directly to that is going to intimidate new users. The need for new user consideration and the need to experience user navigation efficiency are in opposition. I'm just pointing out that as with many requests, we should not simply queue and satisfy the request when time allows. It comes at a cost for other users, so some design should go into a compromise. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

I question this dichotomy. The current link goes to the top of the page, which means that the newbie may not see at all the message being notified, in the frequent cases when there's something else above it (100 % of the cases in wikis with mass-welcoming like it.wiki, Commons and many others). So, both diff and section link are better than the current situation; section link is naturally ideal but can be done later unless a solution is found immediately, and diff is rather easy to implement: this bug asks either, so I don't get what the problem is. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47954 --- Comment #12 from Spinningspark --- Somewhere in the onwiki discussion I think it was said that the timestamp could be linked to the diff, and this followed the pattern on other internet sites. So what I am saying is there is no reason we cannot have both. The link goes to a section link and the timestamp goes to the diff. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47954 --- Comment #13 from Matthew Flaschen --- Can we make this bug about the section link (as it was originally), and create a separate one for the diff link? For the section links one, it should be doable at least for the cases where the section link is included in the summary.
