It would be helpful if Admin would send out a notification when they change an
item number.
How frustrating is it to look for a part in my inventory only to find the number
has been changed.
If a notice is sent out for items marked for deletion, why can't it be done
for changes.

This is a good idea however, there can be many changes to item numbers in a day.
The team might become overloaded by changes and notifications. Unless they can
find a way to automate this, this idea is something to look for further in the
future

There is this: https://www.bricklink.com/catalogReqList.asp?viewAction=I

where you can see and search the entire changelog.

How strange that there are no dates in that list? I would like to see which numbers
have changed but without dates, well, I know nothing. It just becomes a sum-up
of every single part that was once changed..
