##Context## The MEX design for editing item statements would like the user to be able to edit multiple statements in a statement group at once, and all the changes then saved in a single edit when the user clicks “publish”. However, the API currently doesn’t support this very well – the only API module we could use would be wbeditentity. (?)**Current Process for Creating References Summary:** >>!

It tries hard to minimize the generic summary line "changed … label, description and aliases" (`wikibase-entity-summary-wbsetlabeldescriptionaliases`) to either "changed … label" or "… description" or "… aliases", if only one changed. ##Main Objective## What options do we have to update the API module wbeditentity so that its creates a short summary when specifically adding multiple statements with a single property, and what is the level of effort for these options?
