Description Lydia Pintscher 2014-02-20 14:53:08 UTC
When a user changes a statement to "no value" or "unknown value" this should be visually different in the diff from other changes. Make them italic.

Sample diff: https://www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q4115189&diff=110740224&oldid=110678853
Comment 1 John Mark Vandenberg 2014-04-15 04:06:40 UTC
Fwiw, this bug was part of why I completely misunderstood a set of diffs and posted this query:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Project_chat/Archive/2014/04#Problematic_edits_including_Commons_category_unknown_value

To make it even more obvious, the diff could be

-CustomValue: blah
+UnknownValue

(that is unified format; obviously the layout is different for two panel diff)

In the above presentation, italics would not be necessary.
