this would be fantastic. please implement this feature

Atlassian customer in 2006: "Please consider implementing a critical feature that is missing in your product." 

Atlassian: "Please upvote it."

Atlassian customer in 2024: "Did you ever get around to implementing that critical feature? It has been 18 years."

Atlassian: "Please upvote it."

Atlassian, can you elaborate on why it is hard to implement this feature or why it has been postponed so many times? (a blog post?)

To me as a developer the problem sounds intriguing - I wonder where the complexity lies.

Please, please add this feature. We have many long documents with many contributors, and I can't tell who wrote what. I want to be able to follow up with them to ask them about it.

I too suggest this feature to be available to make document writers/readers life easy.

Having a view for certain templates with the page history grouped like what you find in the Google Docs page history. 

Lol I love how I looked for an answer to this when I was fresh out of college... and here I am nearly 20 years into a career doing software development and I'm still waiting for this as a feature.

Still not having this feature after 17 years??..

As a user

• I open a page that lists office keys provided to people outside of the company.
• Each item is added in separate revision of the document.
• At one point I need to know who exactly from a contractor company received the key. 

Expected:

I annotate the document and see who added the line related to the key in question. I ask that person regarding the details. 

Actual:

I bisect the revision history to find the revision that added the desired line 🤦‍♂️

Workaround:

Ask in slack, and complain about how Confluence is useless for finding information  

Definitely interested in this! It is critical to know which parts of a doc are new or outdated.
