Tag-only edits only sometimes have a tag diff

+2
−0

I noticed that the edit to the tags in this edit history does not have a tag diff section. It makes it appear that the second version of this post has no changes:

Edit history showing tags have changed but there is no tag diff section

For comparison, here is tag-only edit on another post, that does have a tag diff section:

Edit history showing a tag diff with 1 tag added

Notice that this one does not have a title diff or body diff, just a tag diff, whereas the previous example had a title diff and body diff with no visible changes, and no tag diff even though that's where the change had occurred.

I'm very confused by this question. I was sure I had kept my time travel a secret. Could you rephrase to help my parsing?

The problem is probably that it is not possible to view the edit in the history before applying/accepting said edit. When viewing a suggested edit, it will contain all the correct information. After applying the suggested edit, the history will not contain all the correct information due to a bug that I have since found. That was what my question was about, but because it's not possible to view an edit in history before it is applied, it was actually not a correct question :)

I was very tired when I posted that comment and completely overlooked that you might mean a suggested edit. Reading it now, being more awake, it's perfectly clear that "applied" means "approved" rather than "submitted for approval". Thanks for being understanding.
