The FilterDiff script improves the readability of Special:AbuseFilter version diffs.

Features

  • Collapses unmodified lines that are far from changes, similar to the context or unified diff formats.
  • Provides toggle buttons to expand and collapse individual diff sections.
  • Removes unnecessary item labels to reduce clutter and maximize diff space.
  • Adds line numbers for clarity when some unmodified lines are hidden.

Usage

When a diff section is collapsible, a toggle button is displayed on the right side of its header to expand or collapse the section.
