http://liquidthreads.labs.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Thread:Talk:Main_Page/testing123_test&lqt_method=thread_history

Someone posted a thread on June 20; I edited just the user's signature on August 28. The thread now says it's been edited by 0 users. This is wrong.

The thread history includes a diff like http://liquidthreads.labs.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Thread:Talk:Main_Page/testing123_test&lqt_method=diff&diff=3266

This is confusing. If it can't show a diff of me editing the user's signature, it shouldn't have a link to the diff.

It's just a "diff" like when you create a page, nothing so weird. Better a permalink than nothing.
On the other hand, having a diff or something is bug 36096.
