    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Confluence before version 4.0 did mark external links with a little green arrow to the up-right, and a little green arrow for attached files pointing to the lower-right.

      I think this was very helpful when managing pages (links), as it was easy to see at a glance where the link was pointing to, internal page link vs external link vs attachment.

      With 4.x, these green arrows are gone.

      I want to request to bring them back. (If you prefer, make it configurable to turn them on or off).

      As this feature was gone without any communication, I mark this request as "bug", not "improvement".
