After a change in an en-us article, localizers receive an email like this:

"A new revision has been approved for the document
Profiles.

To view the updated document, click the following
link, or paste it into your browser's location bar:

https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles "


In the TikiWiki, when an en-us article was modified, in the notification maessages there were:

1) the whole diff from the old source and the new - which proved to be *VERY* useful since you could simply copy the needed text and translate it offline;

2) the link to the history - much needed since I think localizers are more interested in the difference before and after the change than the en-us article itself;

3) the summary of the changes.

and moreover the text of the e-mail message was localizable.


Can you restore these functionality?

Thanks in advance for your attention.

Reproducible: Always

Simone, Michro, at this point, I'm pretty sure those emails have evolved--are there still changes that would be useful for localizers?

I can say that on SUMO, the notification email is still the same than
"A new revision has been approved for the document
Profiles.

To view the updated document, click the following
link, or paste it into your browser's location bar:

https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles "

Please, go on, it will be easier to make support better!

Looks like we need to make the email more like the "ready for review" emails.

The localization part is out of scope for this bug.
