History page table idea

Here's an example from my table idea. (I'll put it here beause it's very rough since I have no clue about real coding):

Ver Ver Version Editor Edit Summary
(cur) (last) 21:20 6 October 2005 Username (→Trivia - encyclopedia articles are not trivia)

Missing are the circles to select two edits to compare, and, as mentioned on the page, the cur/last stuff needs to be rewored more clearly. - Trevor MacInnis (Talk | Contribs) 03:33, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I really hate to harp on you guys, but it seems rather ironic that you talk about "usability" - and then do nothing but remove particularly useful features. Please do not remove the circles - or expect a battle if you try without facing the community first. Ambi 15:41, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I should clarify, it wasn't my intention to remove the circles, it's just that I have no idea how to code to make them appear, the previous example is just an idea that needs someone with some knowledge to apply, circles and all. - Trevor MacInnis (Talk | Contribs) 21:32, 7 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, I'm sorry. What is the difference then? Ambi 06:59, 8 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
Among other things, the tabular arrangement would change the way edit summaries wrap to the next line. Christopher Parham (talk) 23:35, 9 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
