  This will be fixed once we have the mobile termbox on desktop. The next step 
for that is T261488 .

[Wikidata-bugs] [Maniphest] T289761: Consolidating wikidata user interface label editor update history

TASK DESCRIPTION
  **Feature summary**
  When updating **labels**, **descriptions**, and/or **aliases **with the 
`standaard Wikidata user interface` one history/version record is generated for 
each language line changed. This is confusing for the user when reviewing the 
update history afterwards.
  
  When using the `Pywikibot` function `editEntity` only one single history 
record is generated for all of the updated labels, descriptions, or aliases.
  
  **Steps to reproduce** (item update history examples)
  
  - Long history list when using the Wikidata User Interface 
;
 one separate line for each updated cell in the label, description, or alias 
language matrix
  - One single history line when using the Pywikibot editEntity interface 
;
 only one single history line consolidating all of the cell updates
  
  **Use case(s)**
  
  We would prefer that the Wikidata user interface uses one single function 
call to `editEntity`, like Pywikibot does; not a separate transaction for each 
of the changed language lines, but one single transaction to update all of the 
labels, descriptions, and aliases in one shot.
  
  Example call for Pywikibot:
  
item.editEntity( {'labels': item.labels, 'descriptions': item.descriptions, 
'aliases': item.aliases}, summary=transcmt) 
  
  We suspect that the Wikidata GUI uses a loop through each language for all of 
the changed labels, descriptions, and aliases to call a function `editLabels`, 
`editDescriptions`, `editAliases` for each cell in the language matrix that 
changed.
  
  See 
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:Pywikibot_-_Python_3_Tutorial/Labels for 
an example of calling those functions.
