I was checking on https://www.familysearch.org/en/tree/person/details/M656-98M today and saw that her name had been updated in 2020:

Curious about what had been changed, I opened the data view popup and clicked "See All Changes."

I was a bit surprised to see that the change was not there:

Removing the Name filtering and looking through the entire change log, I was able to determine that this name change had occurred during a merge and had come from the deleted individual.

Please work out a fix for this. Either the Name (and other) filtering needs to pull out and display changes that occurred during a merge or the link in the data view popup needs to be changed to say "See most but not all changes" and the filtered display needs to include a warning:

Thanks.
