Summary

In our watchlists, the red/green color of the change in bytes to articles gives a good hunch of the nature of the edits. In article histories (example of article history in current format) the total size of the article at that point is given instead.

Proposal

I think it would be just as useful having those numbers in article histories in red/green color as well.

Motivation

It would make it easier to spot, for example, vandals deleting large sections of articles.
