It's so user unfriendly and anti-Wikidata tool that it adds all sorts of unwanted gibberish in the form of aliases like this one wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q2013&diff=prev&oldid=2337369192 that shouldn't be added at all. The fact that all these options are enabled by default is just so annoying... It should be disabled and made optional as soon as possible! smh
