Hi, we are piloting Suggested Edits on long, community-maintained guides and found several UX issues. 1. When a suggester opens a pending suggestion with **Edit** , the composer returns to the correct location, but there is no visual indication of what they changed. A suggester-facing diff or review step would make it much easier to understand and revise a pending suggestion. 2. In one test, changing a single word produced many additional diff markers that appeared to be whitespace or line-ending changes in the raw Markdown. Could insignificant whitespace be normalized before the diff is generated? 3. **Add reason** disappears when the composer is expanded to fullscreen. It would be helpful for the reason field to remain available in both views. A final review screen that encourages the user to add a reason before submitting would also improve the workflow. 4. The icon-only **Suggest Edit** action is easy to miss. Could the text label be displayed with the icon by default? 5. Is a member-facing page showing submitted suggestions and their pending, accepted, rejected, withdrawn, or stale status planned? Happy to provide screenshots or help test improvements. --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-suggested-edits/398691)._
