I'm trying to keep up with the new and updated record collections at FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list). As of 1 November, there were 1,841 record collections on FamilySearch (up 0 from last week).

Unfortunately, it is difficult to tell which collections are brand new and which ones are updated. The asterisk they use is for "new or updated." I am particularly interested in new collections, for the obvious reasons.
Each one of the collections listed above has a Research Wiki page (use the "Learn more" link). It would be very useful if the Wiki page for each collection listed the dates for when the collection was added as a new collection and the major updates also.
