WatchList provides different views of the watchlist entries in multiple places of the wiki.
Usage / features
[edit]The watchlist has the following additional functions:
- The UserSidebar shows entries from a user's own watchlist.
- An overlay dialog window provides a quick view of the watchlist. From here, users can delete articles from their watchlist or jump to the version comparison for unviewed changes.
- A view of the watchlist can be included in the page content (tag-based). Example:
<bs:watchlist count="10" maxtitlelength="50"/> - Discussion pages are implicitly watched by MW. These implicit entries do not appear in the list. But a discussion page can be added explicitly.
- Long titles are truncated.
