Add or Remove Watchlist Articles

Your watchlist is a display for tracking changes made to selected articles in a wiki. You can add or remove articles from your watchlist to provide easy access to them. The watchlist is similar to the Recent changes link in the left pane of a wiki. However, the watchlist only displays the changes made to the list of articles you are watching.

To add an article to the watchlist

  1. Navigate to the desired wiki article.
  2. Click the Add to Watchlist icon icon at the top of the article page.

To display or modify the articles in the watchlist

  1. Click the My watchlist link in the upper-right corner of the article page.

    The My watchlist page displays and shows the number of pages currently on your watchlist.

    My Watchlist page

  2. Click View relevant changes to display only the list of articles that have recently been edited.

    Articles in the watchlist are listed under related titles, along with the latest date in which the article was updated. Click the link of an article name to open the article.

    Article names that display in bold indicate that pages have changed since you last visited.

  3. Click View and edit watchlist to display the entire list of article titles you have added to your watchlist. To remove any of the articles, select the corresponding checkbox and click Remove titles.
  4. Click Edit raw watchlist to display the entire contents of the watchlist in plain text with one title per line. When you have made the desired edits, click Update watchlist.

    This functionality also allows you to bulk-add or bulk-remove items from the watchlist, access the watchlist in order to copy it to other wikis, or share the watchlist with other users.

  5. To hide certain details of the listed articles, click the Hide link corresponding to the type information you do not want to display.
