             Bug #: 42189
           Summary: Coalesc change events in pollForChanges
           Product: MediaWiki extensions
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal

         Component: WikidataClient

The pollForChanges should coalesc (combine/collapse) successive changes done by
the same user to the same item. This avoids clutter in the recentchanges table
(and thus in the watchlist), and also reduces overhead for notifying client
wikis about changes.

Note that some information from the edit comment may be lost; or perhaps the
summaries for each edit can be stored in the rc_params field of the
recentchanges table and later be used for rendering the RC item be type
appropriate hook.
