I've been on a Moin Moin wiki for a long time, where the RecentChanges
became very bulky if it showed all revisions... And a new version was
created that only showed it grouped per page and max time, listing users who
edited it with commit comments.

However, once spam started happening, using that one made it sometimes
difficult to know if spam occured or not, so we kept both versions so that a
spammer could more easily be spotted.
