Text of the page (random words):
s currently it is not possible to limit email notifications by page so you will receive a notification when any page on your watchlist is changed rss feed main page wikipedia syndication you can also monitor your watchlist via rss rss feed when logged in you can also monitor your watchlist via rss when logged out see wikipedia syndication watchlist feed with token controlling which pages are watched this screenshot shows a page that is not on the watchlist of the user clicking on the star will add it to the watchlist the star on this page is fillled to indicate that it is on the watchlist of the user there are four ways to control which pages you have on your watchlist tab at top of page when viewing a page click the star symbol between the view history tab and the search box at the very top of the page to respectively add or remove the page from your watchlist 2 it will then become filled note that the star symbol is available in the default website design skin in other skins the tab says watch or unwatch watching pages that don t exist you can watch a page even if neither the content page nor the talk page exists enabling you to be alerted if either the content page or the talk page is created to do that go to the page s url either by typing the url directly or following a broken link and then press watch depending on the skin you may have to press cancel first option at bottom of edit box when editing a page check or uncheck watch this page before saving above the show preview button edit entire watchlist click the edit your list of watched pages button at the top of the watchlist page to view or alter the list of watched pages directly the first option takes you to special watchlist edit where the watched pages are listed with checkboxes that can be used to remove items the second takes you to special watchlist raw which has a text area with a list of watched pages one title per line sorted by namespace number and then alphabetically you can edit the list directly copy it to an external editor or replace it with a list created elsewhere duplicates are automatically removed on saving in the list redlinked non existent pages are still watched as are their talk pages and this applies to subpages and their talk pages when you click watch star on for example a user talk page the link is canonicalized to user in the list popups gadget if you have the popups gadget enabled you can use it to watch or unwatch a linked page without having to view it if you check add pages i edit to my watchlist on the watchlist tab of your user preferences then the watch this page checkbox will always be checked by default when you edit pages other similar options are add pages i create to my watchlist add pages i move to my watchlist and for administrators add pages i delete to my watchlist twinkle has the option to automatically add articles it s used on to your watchlist including prod nominations xfd nominations and reverts to change these settings go to wikipedia twinkle preferences it should also be noted that because no one owns any article there is no requirement to watch articles you have created or contributed to so you are not expected to check to see whether the content has been vandalised challenged e g for lack of sources discussed on the article s talk page and so forth the only page you are expected to keep an eye on is your own talk page talk pages are not listed at special watchlist edit or special watchlist raw but they are automatically watched whenever their corresponding non talk pages are watched additional page titles may sometimes appear on your watchlist as a result of page moves temporarily watching pages further information mw help watchlist expiry the watchlist expiry feature allows you to optionally select to watch a page only for a limited period of time 1 week 1 3 or 6 months or 1 year this is done by clicking the hollow blue star icon and selecting the preferred time period in the dropdown which then appears once the chosen watch period has expired the page is automatically removed from your watchlist you can alter the watch period at any time including switching from temporary to permanent watching or unwatching completely at any time temporarily watched pages are usually represented by a half filled blue star icon as opposed to a fully filled blue star which represents a permanently watched page if you simply want to permanently watch a page as usual you do not need to change any of your current processes clearing the watchlist to remove all entries in the watchlist click on clear the watchlist you will be prompted to confirm your selection once confirmed all entries will be removed from your watchlist there is no way to reverse this action you may want to back up your watchlist locally by copying all of the lines from the raw watchlist to a file before clearing limitations special pages it is not possible to watch automatically generated pages such as special pages category membership watching a category page will pick up changes to the text of the category page itself if hide categorization of pages is disabled at preferences watchlist changes shown or page categorization is unchecked after hide on the watchlist then it will also show pages being added or removed from the category unless the category is hidden and show hidden categories is disabled at preferences appearance advanced options 3 however it will not report changes to subcategories or member pages contained in the category transcluded text when a watched page contains transcluded text such as templates the form of the page may change as a result of changes to the transcluded pages these changes will not show up on your watchlist unless you are watching the transcluded pages as well sections it is not possible to watch just a part or section of a page however for talk pages it is possible though not through the watchlist to subscribe to receive notifications for changes to sections other wikis it is not possible to receive watchlist notices on the english wikipedia for changes made to pages watchlisted on other wikipedia languages or wikimedia wikis see wikipedia global watchlist for work on this no watchlist history unlike regular pages wikipedia does not maintain a page history for your watchlist this has a number of consequences including the following edits to your watchlist are permanent and irreversible and there is no way to find out when you added a page to your watchlist you can t see when you started to watch a particular page 4 how to read a watchlist or recent changes legend help d edit made at wiki d ata r edit flagged by o r es n n ew page m m inor edit b b ot edit 123 page byte size change the legend shows at the top right of the watchlist a video explaining the basics of the watchlist when you are logged in to wikipedia a link watchlist appears at the top of every page this links to the special page special watchlist reporting recent changes to your watched pages it is a list separated by days ordered backwards according to the time of the edit each line of a watchlist or recent changes page shows details of each edit whether minor m whether made by a bot b if a new page was created n if the edit was at an associated wikidata page d the time a link to the page a link to the difference diff made by the edit in

with a url link to the specific section that was edited and the edit summary wikipedia added or removed characters has more about the green and red numbers in august 2016 the english wikipedia got ores when enabled it displays a red r at edits that were flagged by the ores system as potentially damaging when disabled the legend says r but no edits are marked technically the watchlist is just a way to filter recent changes to the wiki and therefore has the same technical limitation of only showing changes made in the last 30 days 5 pages that have been changed since you last visited them are shown with a green marker options there are various options available to control how the list of changes is displayed show hide different types of edit you may choose to hide or show minor edits bot edits one s own edits edits by logged out users edits by logged in users page categorization and edits made at a wikidata page associated with a watched page links for this purpose appear at the top of the watchlist page initially the default behavior for all of these is show except for wikidata and page categorization the wikidata option is omitted if you enable group changes by page at special preferences mw prefsection rc it does not work with this feature the defaults can be changed using the options available on the watchlist tab of your user preferences if the most recent edit to a page is hidden and expand watchlist to show all changes not just the most recent is not enabled in preferences then the page will not appear on the watchlist an earlier edit is not shown instead 6 time period covered you can choose how many hours or days you want the list of changes to go back using the links at the top of the watchlist for the maximum 30 days select all for non standard values select one of the available links and then edit the value after days in the url the default value which must be a number of days not greater than 7 is set on the watchlist tab of your user preferences note that there may be a later cut off due to the limit on the number of displayed changes described below restrict by namespace you can restrict the list to changes in a specified namespace using the namespace drop down box check invert selection to exclude the specified namespace enhanced watchlist you can elect to display only the last edit to each watched page simple watchlist this is currently the default but can produce misleading results for example if the last edit to a page was minor then there is no indication that a previous non minor edit occurred to ensure that all changes are displayed check the expand watchlist option on the watchlist tab of your user preferences this setting does not affect category membership changes or wikidata edits all such changes are always displayed if the corresponding option is enabled not just the latest one having selected the expanded watchlist you can choose enhanced display mode which groups together all changes made to each page on a given day click on the blue arrows to the left of the list to expand or collapse each group this option applies to both the watchlist and recent changes and for this reason appears on the recent changes tab of user preferences not the watchlist tab 7 you may choose to set the maximum number of changes to show in expanded watchlist on the watchlist tab of user preferences the maximum possible number of changes to display is currently 1000 if this causes a later time cutoff than you desired you can see earlier changes by filtering by type or namespace as described above customizing watchlists main page wikipedia customizing watchlists it is possible to go beyond the standard options available in the watchlist tab of your user preferences see options section above in particular you can customize your watchlist using css by editing your skin css page see wikipedia customizing watchlists for details hiding pages from a watchlist main page wikipedia hide pages in watchlist it is possible to watch a page without watching its associated talk page it is also possible to watch only a talk page more information can be found at wikipedia hide pages in watchlist alternatives to watchlists main page help public watchlist by default an account can have only one watchlist however it is possible to set up watchlist like functionality using the related changes feature in a way that effectively enables a user to achieve multiple watchlists these are visible to anyone to do this create a page normally in your own user space containing links to the pages you wish to watch changes to those pages can then be monitored by going to the user page and clicking related changes note that in this case the talk pages corresponding to watched pages are not automatically included and that changes to the user page itself will not be picked up related changes can also be used to monitor changes to pages belonging to a category including the addition of pages to the category however the removal of pages from the category is not detected custom tools are available to change the behavior of the watchlist including user musikanimal customwatchlists which allows watchlist entries to be categorized the template delmon may be used to generate a watchlist like page that indicates the status of pages with respect to the various deletion processes watchlist notices main page wikipedia watchlist notices watchlist notices are messages that are posted at the top of all users watchlists for example to publicize changes or discussions that are of importance for the whole
