Description

Author: foxyloxy.wikimedia

Description:
From [[User:Fl/Reports/RevDelete#Confusing_hide.2Fshow_button]]:
The (hide) button within the installation acts as both a hide AND a show button, as it does not change depending on the status of a revision. This can be confusing at times.

Recommendations: Change the link to something status neutral (i.e. "show/hide"), or make it update dynamically.

I'm not entirely sure, but I doubt that the Mediawiki namespace would support dynamic switching between the two.

The default is "show/hide"
