AbuseFilter: clearer permission error when attempting to view diff of private filter
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: matthew.britton

Description:
Following the "details" link next to a change to a private filter in [[Special:Log/abusefilter]], or otherwise accessing a diff of a change to a private filter, produces the message "Unable to fetch the requested versions". This same message is produced if fetching the diff fails for any other reason, for example because it does not exist.

A more specific message should be provided for the case where displaying the diff fails because the filter is private.

Reopening bug, per bug #37337, comments 1 and 2.

It's wrong. This bug is about an error message shown when viewing the diff of a private filter. 37337 is about all public logs being shown when a private filter is specified in Special:AbuseLog. Re-marking as RESOLVED FIXED.
