I recently got two ideas that might make veiwing TUs on a User Page better! 1. Is it possible to have a diff link so other users can see why in the world you got the Thumbs Up? 2. Can we have the user that awarded the TU to the right or something?

For your first idea, when you receive a thumbs up it shows up in the message box. You can click “view edit” or the green edit button to view the difference. For your second idea, I don’t quite understand it…

Well, for the first idea, it says UseronwikiHow gave your edit on RandomArticle a thumbs up. It gives when and a view edit link.

I believe @OoT2D is saying that it should display the link to the edit on the user page, not in the Notifications, since the original post says “I recently got two ideas that might make veiwing TUs on a User Pagebetter!” The user page only shows the article that was given a TU, not the specific edit itself. For the second part, I believe the idea suggested is to display the name of the editor who gave the TU (again, on the user page, not notification area) since it currently doesn’t display who it’s from. As for the usefulness of these ideas, I’m not really seeing why we would need it. If a user is curious as to who gave a TU, or the actual edit that received it, all one has to do is check the Thumbs Up log: http://www.wikihow.com/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=thumbsup&user=&page=&year=&month=-1&tagfilter=&hide_patrol_log=1 which can be filtered by username or article title. The exact link to the diff for the edit is also given.

One thing to help here - you can actually see the diff from the user page; if you click on the date, it goes to the edit that received the TU:slight_smile:

Weeeeel…I guess it wouldn’t be useful , as you put, just an add on. But I guess we don’t need add ons, do we??? Bad idea on my part.:frowning:Sorry, guys! I guess this thread could be closed.
