Line 54:
The diff for my new edit shows up fine, but the 08:29 diff still fails.
(The only difference is that it's now line <b>258</b> instead of line <b>267</b>.)

'''History of vote pages misses many edits'''
I suppose that the intended behaviour was not to mark in the history automatic votes, only hand edits.
Fair enough; only hand edits have useful commentary in the Summary.
Unfortunately, what actually happens is that the history records only the edits immediately ''before'' the hand edits.
If the hand edit is followed by an automatic vote, then it doesn't show up in the history; an automatic vote followed by a hand edit does.
Especially when the Summary of a hand edit explains why something was removed from a list, this is problematic.
