When you want to check increase/decrease of linked domains in chronological order through edit history
This is actually a harder problem that it seems, even at first glance: if you want to examine the links over time then, when you are looking at an old revision of an article, you have to contrive to expand the templates /as they existed at that time/ and not those that exist /now/ as the Mediawiki engine would do.
Clearly, all the data to do so is there in the database - and I seem to recall that there exists an extension that will allow you to use the parser in that way - but the Foundation projects do not have such an extension installed and cannot be convinced to render a page for you that would accurately show what ELs it might have had at a given date.
