Watchlist Expiry

A new watchlist feature is included in MediaWiki 1.35 : Watchlist Expiry. With this feature, you can optionally select to watch a page for a temporary period of time. Once the watch period has expired, the page will be automatically removed from your watchlist. You can update the watch period at any time, including switching from temporary to permanent status. Temporarily watched pages are usually represented by a half star (as opposed to a full star, which represents permanently watched pages). To find out when Watchlist Expiry will be enabled on your wiki, you can check out the release schedule on Meta-wiki. For documentation on how to use the feature, please visit Help:Watchlist expiry .

Why a watchlist

The watchleet featur is mainlie uissfu oan aen aafa busie wiki whaur the "Recent changes" displey becomes ower muckle tae haunle wi monie chynges that ye dinna want tae follae. Oan ae typeecal low traffeec wiki, ye can normallie see aw o the eeditin acteevitie across the hale wiki wioot feelin owerwhelmed. Oan ae mair busie wiki ye'll fynd that monie eedits ar takin place oan pages that ye personlie fynd less interestin. Tae heelp keep track o chynges that ar mair interestin, stairt watchin pages!

Typiclie ye'd watch pages relatit til yer interest airts, n forby pages whaur ye care maist aneat the content. Gif ye mak ae signeefeecant eedit til ae page, that ye micht want tae watch the page (sae that ye ken whan thair's onie follae-up eedits). Mynd that thaur's ae checkkist oan the eedit screen ("Watch this page") fer this purpose ava.

Your watchlist is personal. You can watch any page you want. That choice will remain private.

Use your watchlist

Oan the watchleet displey, some page names appear in baud. This shaws whather or na ye'v veesited the page tae see the chynge. It's a bit like read/onread emails in aen email inkist. The "Recent changes" displey will hae some new baud heilichtin ava, bit fer a differant raison. Here baud is jist shawin eedits til pages oan yer watchleet.

You can combine different kinds of filters to display the results you want.

Email notifications

According to the relevant preferences, changes to pages you watch may also be notified to you by email. The main preference for this is "Email me when a page or a file on my watchlist is changed".

After receiving an email notification for a page, you have to visit the page while logged in if you want to be notified of further changes to the same page.

Watchlist feed with token

You can set up an RSS or Atom feed of your watchlist that is accessible even when logged out:

  • If you would prefer an Atom feed rather than an RSS one, add "&feedformat=atom" to the Link of your feed.
  • To further customise your watchlist feed add different parameters to the link, see API:Watchlist feed .
