	The differences in the code between our test template and the one on the other wiki are cosmetic only. Nevertheless, I copied the exact code from the other wiki to a testing area on our server and got the same result as above. I also notice that the preview text at the top of the template on the other wiki is singular, not plural (which means it's honoring the empty <code><nowiki>{{{diff2\|}}}</nowiki></code>). Thus, either you misentered the template the first go-around or there's some difference in the underlying MediaWiki software between the two wikis. (We were running MediaWiki 1.8 when we first implemented the feature in question, so I have no reason to think it wouldn't work in the 1.11 the other wiki is running.) I can't edit the other wiki, so I can't do any testing there, and since it works here the problem appears to be outside our scope. — [[User:It's dot com\|It's dot com]] 20:40, 8 November 2010 (UTC)		The differences in the code between our test template and the one on the other wiki are cosmetic only.

Also, the reason why you can't edit anything is A) It requires a login. B) The registration I believe is gonked, and C) when you register for an AGE account, it treats everyone who edits as a bot... on all of their wikis. Apparently, their wiki system is all automated, and they actually don't really take care of them at all. {{User:ColdReactive/sig}} 09:41, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

		+	That code produces the following on this wiki:
		+	<blockquote>Thanks for experimenting with the Homestar Runner Wiki. Your test (http://wiki.aeriagames.com/kitsusaga/index.php?title=Guilds&diff=1777&oldid=1771) worked, and has now been reverted or removed. Please use [[HRWiki:Sandbox]] for any other tests you want to do, since testing in articles will normally be reverted quickly. Please see the [[Help:Editing]] page if you would like to learn more about contributing to our resource. Thanks. — [[User:It's dot com\|It's dot com]] 20:40, 8 November 2010 (UTC)</blockquote>
		+	The differences in the code between our test template and the one on the other wiki are cosmetic only. Nevertheless, I copied the exact code from the other wiki to a testing area on our server and got the same result as above. I also notice that the preview text at the top of the template on the other wiki is singular, not plural (which means it's honoring the empty <code><nowiki>{{{diff2\|}}}</nowiki></code>). Thus, either you misentered the template the first go-around or there's some difference in the underlying MediaWiki software between the two wikis. (We were running MediaWiki 1.8 when we first implemented the feature in question, so I have no reason to think it wouldn't work in the 1.11 the other wiki is running.) I can't edit the other wiki, so I can't do any testing there, and since it works here the problem appears to be outside our scope. — [[User:It's dot com\|It's dot com]] 20:40, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
