I am an administrator in the English Wikipedia. It would be useful if
these could be made possible:-
* When deleting some edits in a page, to directly select them and
delete them, instead of having to delete everything and then undelete
the rest.
* To move deleted edits. For example, earlier today I had to histmerge
[[WRYV]] into [[WXBW]]; they were about a radio station which changed
its callsign. But under the visible edits of [[WXBW]] there were
speedy-deleted edits about a small wrestling club called Wantagh Xtreme
Backyard Wrestling, and I had to get that irrelevantia out of the way
before I started the primary job. So I had to get the visible edits out
of the way to leave [[WXBW]] clear to undelete the wrestling edits;
then move them to [[Wantagh Xtreme Backyard Wrestling]], and then
re-delete them. In this case the wanted edits were all earlier than all
the wanted edits, and I needed to temporarily delete the wanted edits
anyway to move page [[WRYV]] in over them to histmerge. Sometimes it is
more complicated, and I must temporarily rename the wanted edits to
extract the junk edits from under them. It would have been easier if I
could move deleted edits while leaving them deleted.
