TODO

For correct styling the module mediawiki.diff.styles needs to be loaded, containing the CSS for the diff classes. We currently do this for every page (in MediaWiki:Common.js). A better solution would be to install Extension:TemplateStyles and only load this module on pages where it is needed.
