1345846 - [feature request] Improve the formatting of highlighting changes in "Compare revisions" view

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1328296

(support.mozilla.org - Lithium :: Feature request, enhancement)

Description

[Underpass]

Tried to update an article with the procedure described in 

https://support.mozilla.org/t5/Contributor-Knowledge-Base/Localizing-articles/ta-p/1363199

("I want to update a Knowledge Base article in my language")

I get a page in which is impossible to find what to add and what to delete: the text to add is underlined while the text to delete is struck through, which make them practically impossible to distinguish from one another.

The text to add should be highlighted in green, while the text to deleted should be highlighted in red.

Thanks.

+NI from Madalina for handling & prioritization.

The current format is:

1. Added text - underline
2. Removed text - strike through

The requested format is:

1. Added text - bright green text highlight 
2. Removed text - bright red text highlight

Would colour-blind users be able to see different in highlighting? If not, what other format should we consider for this? Maybe, since the code is displayed as HTML anyway, we could (additionally to using the colour highlights) make the added text bold and the removed text italicized?
