This way, validators can look easily at the historic of the object and verify for example if a missing member of the relation has been deleted. They can also see other objects around and verify if this was a duplicate.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1474301558906_14855"><br></div><div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_1_1474301558906_14854">A contributor erased a few hours ago relation 5366432 with an indication that relation id=189383 is a complete version with an outer describing the Manoa Innovation Center.
