The thing to remember is that the history of a
page is the history of the
wiki markup for the page, not the history of the rendered HTML. It would be
misleading if edits were shown in the markup history for an article each
time a template or Wikidata item changed because reverting the markup to
that version wouldn't actually revert the change. I think what curators with
specific specialties want is the ability to automatically expand their
watchlist to include all templates and data items that could affect their
watched pages. Then a way to view the merged watchlists from multiple
projects would be helpful. There is room for improvement in global account
integration. For example, I just noticed that I need to set my timezone on
Wikipedia and Wikidata independently.
FYI: Wikidata edits relating to a watched article should already show
up in the user's Wikipedia watchlist.
