Rob, what exactly is a 'full old version', how many does MediaWiki
maintain, and how far back do they go?
Platonides, where is the "advanced watchlist" documented?
Frederik, that looks very close to what I am looking for, except that the
inputs would be the current version vs. an older version (possibly
selected by date) and the markup would be introduced into the normal
MediaWiki page output (under control of the user). That would allow me to
very quickly home in on any changes in the page.
Thanks everyone!
Norbert

There's an advanced watchlist feature which you
might use. You get on
the history page "updated since my last visit" next to those revisions
(you must see the history page before the article page). You could then
diff them.
