--- Comment #29 from Ryan Holliday <[email protected]> ---
There may have been a change in behavior since this bug was initially filed,
but as of today if you check the box for "Group changes by page in recent
changes and watchlist (requires JavaScript)" in the "Recent Changes"
preferences and then view http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Special:RecentChanges
you will see multiple edits as a group.  If your account has the "patroller"
permission any one edit in a group is unpatrolled then the entire group shows
up as unpatrolled.  Clicking the "X changes" link next to the grouped item
leads to a page that may have a "mark as patrolled" link, but that link only
marks the most recent edit as patrolled and NOT the entire group for which the
diff is being displayed.  A patroller can still scroll through each individual
revision and mark each one as patrolled, but it is far more efficient to be
able to mark the grouped diff as patrolled.

The reason that this is a big deal on Wikivoyage is that we really do try to
patrol every edit since our wiki is a target for business spamming.  Since most
editors will make multiple (and often dozens) of edits to an article, being
able to flag all edits in a grouped diff as "patrolled" is a HUGE time saver.

If anyone needs the patroller flag added to their account to reproduce this
issue feel free to leave a note at http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/User_talk:Wrh2
and I can update the account rights.
