I found my way, I was hoping to not have to reformat the complete changelog.

There is usually no reason to do that, could you explain why you want to?

Hi,

why do you want to do so. Disk space is cheap these days and having them
is beneficial for archiving purposes. Some packages have a long history
of changelogs [1] and that's very helpful if you want to track down when
an issue was introduced for example.

Having that said: Yes, you're allowed to.

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/a/apache2/current/changelog
