--- Comment #7 from Luis Felipe Schenone <scheno...@gmail.com> ---
To me it is pretty clear that displaying the number of days, rather than "all",
is much clearer and thus an usability improvement. What does "all" mean? All
the changes in the article? All the changes in the article since the user has
been watching? Both interpretations would make perfect sense, and in fact they
are the most natural to me. But it means neither: it means all the changes
since the max number of days that that particular MediaWiki installation takes
into account! And that varies per installation. So showing the actual number of
days seems a lot clearer, doesn't it?

And no, I cannot provide any user tests that prove that this way is clearer, as
Siebrand asks for, but I think that Nick Levinsons experience, plus the above
argument, should suffice.
