danieldegroot2 created an issue (openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website#6145)

### Problem

Ref #6117

>From [ceirios](https://www.openstreetmap.org/user/ceirios) on OSM World Discord (via private message)

> [this is] ideal for features with large versions, [though] perhaps [the amount of versions displayed on a single page] could be a bit less if the feature has a lot of tags (London as [example](https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/107775), the multilingual tags are the bulk of the scrolling)

Browsing detailed elements with many tags can be hard.
(i.e. intended tags are spread or at bottom of long tags table in one of many versions)
However, it might be hard to fix as i.e.

- Limiting amount of versions displayed further everywhere might be redundant
- Limiting amount of versions displayed only for objects with `n` tags might be inconsistent and hard to get right

Alternatively changing the following might be not easy to use
- Vertical scrollbars could be added to tags tables; or
- (Part of) Tags tables could be collapsed
(synced, if feasible at all)

Related #1253 (as workaround, mentioned tools like OSM Deep History can be used)
