Description fusiongyro 2012-10-25 21:41:51 UTC
If you do Search History and open a disclosure for some version, you may be greeted with "Show more files." Clicking it, the link will turn into "Show less files." This is not grammatically correct, because 'file' is not a mass noun. The correct wording is "Show fewer files."
